Hemerocallis

'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’.

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.
