Daylily Double Dream (Hemerocallis)

Hemerocallis 'Double Dream' is a stunning variety that combines the effortless beauty of a daylily with the luxurious appeal of double blooms. Each flower features multiple layers of soft, peachy-pink petals, delicately ruffled and accented with a glowing yellow centre. The result is a showstopping display that exudes elegance and charm, perfect for borders, containers, or cottage-style planting schemes.

Blooming profusely from mid to late summer, this variety stands out with its generous flower production and extended blooming period. The large, double flowers are not only visually striking but also long-lasting, opening day after day to ensure weeks of vibrant colour.

At a height of 60-70 cm, ‘Double Dream’ forms tidy clumps of arching, strap-like green foliage that provide structure and texture to any planting scheme. Even when not in bloom, the foliage remains neat, offering year-round interest in the garden.

What sets ‘Double Dream’ apart is its adaptability and unique double blooms. Unlike single-flowered varieties, this daylily adds an extra layer of visual interest, with its full, fluffy petals creating a rose-like effect. It’s also exceptionally hardy and thrives in a variety of soils, from sandy to clay, as long as they’re well-draining.

This variety is particularly noted for its extended bloom time, often producing flowers for up to six weeks during the summer. Additionally, its soft colour palette makes it versatile, complementing both bold and pastel planting schemes. As a bonus, the blooms attract pollinators, making it as valuable for wildlife as it is for its beauty.

We ship our Hemerocallis 'Double Dream' as bare root plants, ensuring they arrive fresh and ready for planting in spring.
