Description
Hemerocallis 'Cathy's Sunset', commonly known as Daylily, is a compact herbaceous perennial admired for its bold bi-colour blooms and easy-going nature. This eye-catching variety produces cheerful flowers with yellow outer petals and rich orange to terracotta inner petals, creating a warm sunset-like effect in borders and patio plantings.
Flowering from early summer into early autumn, Hemerocallis 'Cathy's Sunset' offers a long-lasting display of small, vibrant blooms held on short, sturdy stems above neat clumps of arching green foliage. Like other daylilies, each flower lasts only a day, but fresh buds open in succession for weeks, keeping the plant colourful over an extended period.
Its compact habit makes it especially useful for the front of borders, cottage garden schemes, wildlife-friendly planting, and containers. It performs well in sun or light partial shade and is easy to grow in most fertile, well-drained garden soils, making it a dependable choice for low-maintenance planting.
Hardy and reliable, Hemerocallis 'Cathy's Sunset' returns year after year with minimal fuss, gradually forming attractive clumps that bring colour and structure to the garden.
Supplied in a 2L pot, this healthy plant is well established and ready to thrive in your garden.
