Here are a few other interesting facts I discovered about Daylilies: They’ve been the subject of and praised by many famous Chinese poets; they are often used as a pollution detection plant (when the air is polluted by fluorine, the tips of their leaves will turn reddish-brown); and they are also cultivated as a food crop in some parts of the world. They’re also the Chinese emblem for Mother’s Day.
I don’t know how long these blooms will last. In the near future, there will be 90+ degree days here.
Oh my gosh this is beautiful! I hope it makes it too. It’s interesting how often I only look at the beauty of a flower or plant while not looking at the other things they bring. So many plants and flowers are eatable, medicinal are now pollution detectors. She is beautiful!
Thanks, Monte.
