Hemerocallis 'Exotic Candy'
Common Name: Daylily
A mature clump of 'Exotic Candy' in the landscape is spectacular! Acclaimed daylily evaluator Arthur Kroll describes it as "a thicket of bloom scapes with hundreds of buds". You'll be impressed with its outstanding vigor and rapid multiplication.
Loads of very fragrant, light pink flowers with a prominent dark rose eye and bright green throat are produced first in midsummer and then consistently reblooms later in the season. The blossoms have nicely ruffled, rounded petals that recurve to reveal the round flower form. Excellent petal substance helps the blossoms last through the heat of summer.
This is considered a premium daylily, which means that it has been selected as highly performing plant with exceptional bloom performance, substantive, vibrantly colored flowers, complete winter hardiness in northern zones, and a vigorous habit.
Daylilies can survive many harsh conditions that other plants cannot including: polluted city environments, slopes, poor and dry soils, near pavement that is salted in winter, and under Black Walnut trees (not affected by juglone).
