'Stella de Oro'
Stella de Oro Daylily
Origin: Introduced in 1975 by Hemerocallis hybridizer Walter Jablonski it was named in two languages: Italian (Stella: Star) and Spanish (de Oro: Gold). Stella d’Oro, thus translates from the two languages to ‘Star of Gold’.

Opinion
"
Undoubtedly one of the most prolific cultivars grown today. Tough, easy and with fresh green foliage and repeat blooms throughout the season it is I think overplanted.
