A gorgeous daylily with white flowers that appear continuously on slender, upright stems during July. Looks great planted at the front of a sunny mixed or herbaceous border. The Greek term 'hemerocallis' means 'beautiful for a day', and the prolific, lily-like flowers only last one day. Dead-head regularly to prolong flowering.
