Flower of a daylily in summer, Hemerocallis, Liliaceae, Bavaria, Germany


Daylilies are perennial herbaceous plants. They often grow in clumps. The roots are often fibrous or fleshy and confluent, but at the ends form thickenings from which grow rhizomes. The stem has long linear stem leaves only near the ground, two of which always face each other. They are often bent over and taper sharply towards the tip. Daylilies are found from central Europe to eastern Asia. The genus Hemerocallis is absent from the New World; although there are representatives of the daylily family in Australia, the genus appears to be absent there as well. Because hybrids of the Yellow Red Daylily (Hemerocallis fulva) in particular are popular as garden plants, they are also found in North American gardens, and some have run wild from there.
