3 Black Eyed Stella Daylily Bare Root Plants - Reblooming Perennial Flower
Black Eyed Stella Daylily is a compact, reblooming perennial prized for its golden-yellow petals accented by a bold dark red eyezone. This cheerful daylily brings long-lasting color to borders, edging, and container gardens, and its ruffled blooms open repeatedly through the season. As a dependable perennial, it returns year after year with minimal care, making it a favorite for both beginner and experienced gardeners.

Planting & Care
Plant bare root daylilies as soon as possible after arrival. Soak the roots in water for about an hour before planting. Dig a hole wide enough to spread the roots, form a small mound in the center, and set the crown about 1 inch below the soil surface. Backfill with soil, firm gently, and water thoroughly. Space plants 12 to 18 inches apart to allow good air circulation.
Water regularly during the first growing season to help roots establish. Once established, daylilies are fairly drought tolerant but perform best with consistent moisture. Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring and remove spent blooms to encourage reblooming. In colder zones, a layer of mulch helps protect the roots over winter.
