Description / Hemerocallis Prairie Blue Eyes Daylily
Hemerocallis Prairie Blue Eyes Daylily is a standout in midsummer gardens, known for its vibrant color, exceptional hardiness, and reliable bloom performance. This perennial showcases large lavender flowers with a distinctive near blue eyezone that draws the eye and adds dimension to planting schemes. A green throat anchors the bloom and provides a striking contrast to the purple toned petals.
Each flower opens atop tall, strong stems that rise above neatly clumping foliage. At full maturity, the plant reaches up to 28 inches tall and spreads about 15 inches, making it ideal for borders, foundation plantings, or mass displays. Its upright habit allows it to pair well with shorter perennials and groundcovers.
Prairie Blue Eyes is a low maintenance choice for gardeners seeking dependable, reblooming summer color. It thrives in full sun to part shade, adapts easily to a range of soil types, and shows resistance to common pests. Clumps multiply freely, expanding the display over time without invasive tendencies.
Highly attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds, this daylily brings both beauty and pollinator activity to the garden. Its cold hardiness down to zone 4 and tolerance for heat, drought, and variable conditions make it a strong performer across many regions. Prairie Blue Eyes is a classic cultivar, beloved for its bluish tones and dependable show.
