Hemerocallis 'Happy Returns'
Daylily
An extremely popular and widely-used reblooming daylily, Hemerocallis 'Happy Returns' boasts ruffled, lemon yellow flowers on naked stems rising above a clump of arching, linear, blade-like leaves. Individual flowers open for one day. Mildly fragrant, this dwarf daylily flowers all summer long! Foliage crowds out many weeds and provides elegant form, texture and color to the landscape.

Missouri Botanical Garden Plant of Merit
Hemerocallis translates to “beauty for a day;” that’s how long each flower lasts.
Daylily Growing and Maintenance Tips:
Daylilies are tough, cold and drought tolerant, long lived plants. Pinch off spent flowers, trim stems when blooms are finished, but not the leaves!
