Hemerocallis 'Bitsy'
Hemerocallis 'Bitsy' is a dwarf daylily that will brighten your day with its sunny yellow flowers. This miniature daylily with tall thin flower stems blooms profusely and is sure to make a beautiful addition to the garden and thrive in the California landscape.
There are so many daylily varieties to choose from but not all varieties are suited for the California climate. Some daylilies only have one bloom cycle, or are susceptible to Daylily Rust, an unattractive fungus. Hemerocallis ‘Bitsy’ is rust-resistant and a rebloomer and an excellent choice for your California garden. Bitsy is an award-winning daylily that is popular for its long flowering period, disease-resistance, and low maintenance.
Bitsy Daylily, features delicate, bright lemon-yellow flowers that bloom as early as March in mild climates and flowers profusely with multiple repeat bloom cycles through fall. The funnel-shaped, 2-inch diameter flowers sit atop slender stems that reach 2 ft. tall. The deep green, narrow, grass-like foliage forms evergreen clumps 12-20 inches tall and provides the perfect backdrop for the bright blooms.
Daylilies are relatively low maintenance and easy to grow herbaceous perennials that can be used in a variety of garden styles and designs, including cottage gardens and rock gardens. Excellent in borders or as edging along walkways, Hemerocallis look best when planted in large groups of a single flower color for the best dramatic effect in a landscape. Daylily ‘Bitsy’ is rust-resistant and tolerant of cool, damp nights, and onshore winds making it an excellent choice for coastal gardens. Bitsy’s compact size is perfect for small gardens, balconies, or patios.
Hemerocallis 'Bitsy' is perfect for both novice and experienced gardeners alike. Waterwise, low maintenance, and resilient with a long flowering period, ‘Bitsy’ is a great investment with high impact. This popular and attractive daylily is sure to turn heads and add beauty to your garden.
Plant your Hemerocallis 'Bitsy' in well-drained soil in a sunny location that receives at least 6 hours of full sun. Grows best in organically rich loam but adapts to most soil types if they drain well.
After planting your daylily, water the soil regularly for a few weeks until the roots have become established, then reduce frequency. Drought tolerant, but flowers best with regular water.
‘Bitsy’ tolerates extreme heat and cold and has good rust resistance.
Prune spent blooms to encourage more blooms. Remove old or damaged foliage for tidier appearance.
Plant daylilies in mass with one color for best natural effect. Or mass plant a low type in front of a taller daylily for visual impact. Daylilies vary in flower height, flower size, and foliage and should not be mixed like one might do with pansies.
