Description

Hemerocallis 'Little Miss Sunshine' is a delightful, compact daylily prized for its profusion of large, bright golden-yellow flowers with ruffled edges. An improved selection of the classic 'Stella de Oro', this dwarf, semi-evergreen perennial forms a tidy clump of strap-like, bright green, grassy foliage. From early to mid-summer, with reliable rebloom into early fall, it produces an abundance of slender, smooth scapes bearing large (4-4.5 inch), lily-shaped blooms in a cheerful, sunny golden-yellow hue with lightly ruffled edges, creating a long-lasting, vibrant display that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. Exceptionally easy to grow, adaptable to a wide range of conditions, drought-tolerant once established, and deer resistant, it is an outstanding choice for borders, edging, mass plantings, rock gardens, containers, and small-space gardens.
