These Daylilies Add Garden Magic
White daylilies are like magic in the garden: they blend with everything, offer a tranquil calm to the bright colors of summer and can lend an air of sophistication, a vintage charm or a fresh modern twist depending on your landscape design. In this video, Ken Oakes shares 5 of our favorite near white varieties.
All daylilies hail from yellow and orange varieties. For that reason, there is no such thing as a "true" white daylily. To acknowledge that, you will often hear us refer to them as "near" white.
Most near white daylilies appear white from a distance but, as you'll see in this video, run the gamut on the "white" end of the color spectrum!
We love this about them and think this is the secret to their ability to blend with EVERYTHING in the garden! Check it out!

ABOUT US:
Oakes Daylilies is a family-owned daylily farm that's been in business for three generations. Our daylilies grow in home gardens, city parks and botanical gardens across the nation- including Hawaii and Canada. We are known in the industry as Daylily Experts and grow over 1000 varieties of daylilies on nearly 70 acres in East Tennessee. But over 50 years ago, we started just like you-with one daylily in a home garden.
.............................
FARM-FRESH TO YOU!
When it comes to daylily plants, bigger is better! All of the plants we ship will be three fans or larger - two or three times (or more) what you might receive from other companies. Larger plants get established faster and produce more blooms quicker.
All of your plants will be freshly dug when you order. The leaves are trimmed and the plants are washed and air-dried. Your daylilies will be out of the ground less than 48 hours before they’re headed your way.

    • @OakesDaylilies
      @OakesDaylilies 26 хвилин тому

      Possibly. They may be overcrowded, too. If they have plenty of space, fertilizing might be just what they need. We usually recommend fertilizing in the spring before they begin to bud out but if you want to fertilize now it should be fine as long as you avoid getting on the foliage (it can burn the leaves) and water it in well.

    Hello there. I have some Orange day Lillie's and I have 3 bulbs that all flowered this year. Is it possible to make more shoot next year or will I always get 3 come up? These flowers are my late grandfather's and grandmother's from 35+ years ago. I'd love to have a plant pot full of them. Is it possible to gather seeds from the flowers or can I cut the bulb in half or do something to multiply them? Thanks for any help and suggestions.

    • @OakesDaylilies
      @OakesDaylilies 5 днів тому

      The best time to divide daylilies is after they bloom. Doing so before they bloom could impact their bloom for that season. Here in East Tennessee, we prefer to divide in fall because a) it's after bloom season and b) it's not so hot. If you choose to divide your plants in fall, make sure you do so at least a month or more before your first hard freeze.

I’m going to give it a try when pods come out for both the lilies and peonies. It’s the end of June 2024 right now.
