1 Golden Zebra daylily

HEMEROCALLIS ‘MALJA’, ZONES 4 TO 9

With more than 90,000 daylily cultivars, there’s one for you! This beauty has dark yellow flowers that peak in early summer and slender leaves variegated with creamy white edges. As its name implies, each bloom comes and goes in one day.

This Why we love it: daylily grows well in most soils in full sun or part shade. It is striking when in bloom, and when it’s not, the leaves add plenty of appeal on their own.
