Colorful, Resilient Daylilies That Brighten Any Landscape Effortlessly
Daylilies are known for their luminous blooms, elegant arching leaves, and a robust tolerance for just about any condition. These tough perennials provide splashes of color for seasons to come, and they do so without much fuss. TN Nursery grows field-ready, adaptable Daylilies in their seasonally-variable gardens, a practice we've followed for over 65 years. The nursery has provided plant materials to national sites like Arlington National Cemetery and The Washington Monument since 1959, and has offered horticultural guidance in support of history-based educational segments from the Discovery and History networks. This deep-rooted history is the basis of our expertise, and the reason every Daylily TN Nursery has to offer is grown with knowledge, precision, and genuine horticultural know-how.
The All-Season Appeal of Daylilies
Daylilies are unique in that they thrive in conditions that cause many other perennials to wither and die. Drought and heat tolerant, as well as forgiving of poor soil and less than perfect care, daylilies are perfect for the busy gardener and the difficult landscape. Blooms open crisp and new every morning, and the landscape is never the same for two days during the summer. Colors range from lemon yellow through fiery red and sunset orange, bringing warmth and happiness to borders, slopes, walkways and mixed perennial beds. At TN Nursery we have chosen varieties with strong stems, rich color and extended blooming periods for excellent garden performance.
Why Daylilies Are a Landscape Essential
Few perennials rival Daylilies for dependability. Their clumping growth helps control weeds. Deep roots hold the soil in place, eliminating erosion and loss of valuable topsoil, making them ideal for banks, hillsides and high traffic areas. Daylilies mix easily with shrubs, ornamental grasses, coneflowers and native wildflowers for plantings that create depth and remain attractive from spring until frost. Non-blooming foliage is often as attractive before and after bloom as during, providing dependable texture all season. Daylilies practically take care of themselves with little or no maintenance beyond occasional dividing.
