Hemerocallis Root Beer (Daylily)

Slightly ruffled dark cola-red petals with a deeper halo and golden-yellow midrib with a yellow-green throat rise high above full green foliage. Slow growth rate.

The common name comes from the fact that each flower only lasts for no more than 24 hours- they open in the morning and wither before the following evening- some to be replaced by another flower on the same scape.
