"Tropical Island" 6-21-26

Day Lily

Tropical Island daylily is a hardy, reblooming perennial with creamy pink double blooms and a plum-purple eye, ideal for a variety of garden conditions. Hemerocallis 'Tropical Island Paradise' features 4½-inch double blooms of creamy pink with a plum-purple eye and rim, creating a ruffled, near-perfect flower appearance Some sources describe it as having large ruffled coral pink flowers with an orange throat, highlighting slight variations in color depending on growing conditions. This variety is a rebloomer, producing flowers in mid-summer with a second flush later in the season.

*****************
Additional Notes

Flowers are edible by humans and can be used in bouquets or salads.

HOWEVER, daylilies are toxic to dogs. Ingesting daylilies can cause symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, and even kidney failure in severe cases. Every part of the daylily plant is toxic, and even a small amount can lead to significant health issues for a pet.
