Probably the most famous and oft-planted globally of any Daylily, Stella has captivated the world over. A multi-award winner shortly after it's release as it raised the standard for re-blooming Daylilies producing successive flushes of butter yellow flowers at intervals through the season together with obligingly compact habit. Still of great value whether on the patio in pots or forefront of the border, rockery, edging etc. Although compact it does increase quickly so is best divided every three years or so to maintain it's perpetual blooming habit. Has given rise to many variations such as Purple D'oro, Mini Stella and Stella Tet.
Plant 15-18" apart or grow in 4 litre capacity containers.

Evergreen varieties may maintain all foliage over the winter. The foliage state can be influenced by the severity or otherwise of the winter period.

Ploidy - Diploid
Ploidy - In layman's terms ploidy is the number of chromosomes a variety has. Older varieties are nearly all diploids but modern day breeding techniques resulted in improved tetraploid varieties with three chromosomes. It is difficult to distinguish between them in general plant appearance, although diploids do have ever so slightly narrower foliage. As far as the blooms are concerned tetraploids have flowers with thicker, heavier substance and fuller form and are the very pinnacle of perfection and grandeur. Diploids are not so heavily textured and can be more graceful in appearance. They also tend to open earlier in the day even when it is colder. Diploids will usually grow and increase more quickly.
Parentage - seedling
Parentage - The varieties that were crossed and hybridized to create the variety.

Would also make a welcome gift I feel as an introduction to all things Daylily.
