A unique addition to the garden in contrast with the typical orange and coral colored daylily, this perennial flower blooms as dark as red wine. The Little Grapette Daylily begins with green foliage and blossoms to a beautiful, deep purple colored foliage. Blooming in May through August, this flower adds constant classic, yet mature blooms to the garden. This flower can be planted within the landscape to perpetual color throughout the warm season.
The Little Grapette Daylily is attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds. It cannot, however, be trusted around Deer. The general growing habit of this Daylily is upward, and then outward. The blooms are tall and plentiful, but it is mounding in nature so will take up space vertically and horizontally. For this reason, it would be best to plant within garden beds, or along the house or fence. It likely would take over any container it’s planted in.
Little Grapette Daylily Care
This perennial plant thrives in hardiness zones three through eight, making it very hardy. It can tolerate either full or partial sun. The Little Grapette Daylily can tolerate a large range of soil qualities and acidity. This perennial plant enjoys a low to average amount of water.
Spent flowers can be cut back after blooming for cosmetic purposes. This will not extend blooming time.
Little Grapette Daylily Spacing
The Little Grapette Daylily can reach 12 inches in height. It should be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart due to its mounding nature.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
