Hemerocallis ‘Stella de Oro’ - The golden yellow, ever-flowering daylily
Hemerocallis ‘Stella de Oro’, also known as daylily ‘Stella de Oro’, is one of the most popular daylily varieties and delights with its exceptionally long flowering period. Its bright golden-yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers bring a constant splash of colour to the garden from June through to autumn. Its compact, clump-forming growth makes it suitable for beds and containers as well as a flowering border plant.
Tireless blooms from summer to autumn
A special feature of Hemerocallis ‘Stella de Oro’ is its remontant flowering - this means that it blooms in several flushes and ensures continuous flowering for many weeks. The golden-yellow, slightly fragrant flowers appear on short, sturdy stems above the grass-like, dark green foliage. Each individual flower only lasts one day, but as new buds are constantly appearing, the plant looks lush and lively all summer long.
Perfect planting partners for a vibrant display of colour
Thanks to its compact growth habit (25 - 30 cm high), the daylily ‘Stella de Oro’ combines wonderfully with other sun-loving perennials. It harmonises particularly well with lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), sage (Salvia nemorosa) or ornamental grasses such as blue fescue (Festuca glauca). Beautiful colour contrasts are also created in combination with catmint (Nepeta) or coneflower (Echinacea purpurea). In naturalised gardens, it creates warm accents together with sedum and rudbeckia.
Location and soil - sun worshipper with few requirements
Hemerocallis ‘Stella de Oro’ loves sunny locations and also copes well with dry periods. A well-drained, humus-rich and slightly moist soil promotes its growth, but it tolerates a wide range of soil conditions. It is particularly easy to care for and undemanding, making it ideal for low-maintenance gardens. It also thrives magnificently in containers on sunny patios or balconies.
Hardy and easy to care for - a perennial for many years
This daylily is absolutely hardy and reliably sprouts again in spring. After flowering, it can be pruned slightly to maintain its compact appearance. For even more abundant re-flowering, it is advisable to remove wilted flowers regularly. As it is hardly susceptible to diseases or pests, it requires only minimal care.
Versatile use - from borders to containers
Thanks to its compact growth, Hemerocallis ‘Stella de Oro’ is versatile. It is ideal for front gardens, perennial beds, borders, hillside planting and as a low border. It also looks wonderful in containers or as a group planting. Its long flowering period and low maintenance make it a perfect choice for garden enthusiasts looking for ever-flowering plants that require minimal care.
A real gem for any garden
With its long flowering period, bright flowers and uncomplicated care, the daylily ‘Stella de Oro’ is an asset to any garden. Whether as a bee-friendly continuous bloomer, as a container plant or as a border - it will impress in every respect. Be enchanted by its beauty and enjoy its sunny radiance from early summer to autumn!
