Siloam Bumble Bee Hemerocallis Plant

Siloam Bumble Bee' Hemerocallis Plant is a dwarf variety of Daylily with a 2 to 3-inch bloom and a height of only 12-inches. Fully ruffled, bumble bee yellow petals lead to a deeply-colored dusky purple, almost black, throat, hence its name. The petals on this daylily tend to arch gracefully back rather than standing straight out. Even the sepals are gently ruffled and where Siloam Baby Talk would be great for the new Mom of a baby girl, this dwarf would be perfect for parents with a new son!
