DAYLILY PHOTOS Hemerocallis means "beauty for a day" and aptly describes the bloom cycle of daylilies, since each daylily flower only lasts one day. Due to multiple buds, at various stages of development on each daylily, the bloom period usually lasts a couple weeks. The flowering peak for most daylilies is mid-summer in Pennsylvania, so most daylily shows are scheduled accordingly. |

During a recent daylily show hosted
by the Pittsburgh Iris & Daylily Society at the Galleria in Mt.
Lebanon, we
photographed an array of award-winning daylilies entered in the
judging competition. With a wide range of flower colors, types and
sizes, daylilies offer something for every garden. Their hardiness
and vigor make them stalwarts in most home flower borders.
