* 6″ bloom, 24″ tall, Mid-Late Season + rebloom, Dormant

‘Lady Lucille’ daylily is consistently on our Top 50 Best Sellers list partly due to its outstanding bloomability but also, if we’re being honest, because it’s simply a beautiful daylily. Intense, deep orange blooms shine in the garden. Petals are darker than sepals, with a deeper orange blush extending from the throat and a prominent yellow midrib.

A high bud count means you’ll get lots of bright blooms from Lady Lucille and fantastic rebloom means you’ll be seeing this powerhouse off and on throughout the season. Looks awesome in a mass display.

Although listed as dormant, this variety has been proven to successfully grow  in zones 3-10.

Lady Lucille Daylily Features:

‘Lady Lucille’ daylily is consistently on our Top 50 Best Sellers list partly due to its outstanding bloomability but also, if we’re being honest, because it’s simply a beautiful daylily. Intense, deep orange blooms are a large 6″ and shine in the garden. Petals are darker than sepals, with a deeper orange blush extending from the throat and a prominent yellow midrib. Tall scapes are approximately 2′ in our East Tennessee garden.

A mid to late season bloomer, we can typically expect to see this lovely daylily around the mid to late June or early July here in zone 7. If you are to the north of us, you can expect to see it a couple of weeks after we do. If you are to our south, you can look forward to seeing it a bit before us. A fantastic rebloom allows us to see its bright orange blooms off and on throughout the season.

Although listed as dormant, Lady Lucille has been proven to successfully grow in zones 3-10.

This bright orange beauty looks awesome in a mass display but we also love it paired with yellow, gold or hot pink for extra sizzle or dark purple for an arresting appearance in the mid to late summer garden.

HOW TO GROW DAYLILIES: Daylilies are very easy-to-grow. They like a lot of sun and they like a lot of water. For more information on how to care for daylilies, click here.
WHAT DAYLILIES CAN I GROW: Most of you can grow any of the daylilies we sell. If you live in an area with a sustained cold period like we do in East Tennessee, you can grow all the varieties. However, If you live in an area that doesn’t get freezing weather in the winter (like zones 9 and 10), dormant varieties won’t work for you; you’ll need to choose evergreen or semi-evergreen varieties.

BIG PLANTS! When it comes to daylily plants, bigger is better! All of the plants we ship will be three fans or larger — two or three times (or more) what you might receive from other companies. Larger plants get established faster and bloom more quickly!

FARM-FRESH TO YOU! All of your plants will be freshly dug when you order. The leaves are trimmed and the plants are washed and air-dried. Your daylilies will be out of the ground less than 48 hours before they’re headed your way.

BONUS DAYLILIES: We send free daylilies (we call them “bonus” daylilies) with every order. These daylilies are equal to about 20% of your order, you get to choose what you’d like at checkout.

ABOUT US: Oakes Daylilies is a family-owned daylily farm that’s been in business for three generations. Our daylilies grow in home gardens, city parks and botanical gardens across the nation– including Hawaii and Canada. We are known in the industry as Daylily Experts and grow over 1000 varieties of daylilies on nearly 70 acres in East Tennessee. But over 50 years ago, we started just like you—with one daylily in a home garden.

    Needs some shade in Zone 9

    nhud2682 (verified owner)

    I grew Lady Lucille in Chicago (Zone 5) and it was fantastic. When I moved to California (Zone 9) 5 years ago, I missed my old daylily favorites and decided to try Lady Lucille, even though I knew that It was a dormant type and evergreens were probably more likely to thrive here. And, I have verified that this is true. I have moved Lady Lucille several times, coming to the conclusion that it needs to be in dappled shade because in full sun, even with daily watering, the flowers and foliage are scorched by mid-afternoon. Our summers are HOT and dry, 100+ is not uncommon, but I have found some evergreens that stand up to it without scorching. Lady Lucille’s flowers are stunning when they first open, and it is still one of my favorites because of the deep, rich orange and the darker center.
