Description
Hemerocallis, Stella de Oro, lilies, is compact, vigorous, fragrant and enjoys profuse blooms over an extremely long blooming period. These beauties were captured in The Rose Garden, Tyler, Texas. I love hanging out in this beautiful park because it is not only a peaceful and quiet environment, but there are always flowers blooming through out the year. I captured the image with a Nikon camera and lens.
More about this lily type:
Stella de Oro' will thrive in almost any sunny location you choose to put it, including rocky, salty soils where few other plants survive. But keep it away from areas that get drenched with water, such as beneath roof overhangs. For best performance, medium-moisture, humusy, well-drained soil is ideal. When planting in masses, space the plants 12 to 18 inches apart; they will expand rather slowly and will not require division for several years.
'Stella' is usually planted in the spring when all danger of frost has past, or in the fall a month or so before first frost. It's best not to plant in the heat of summer, but this plant is so sturdy that it generally survives almost any planting time.
Removing each flower stalk as the bloom fades will stimulate continued bloom periods all the way into fall. You can remove the browned foliage prior to winter snows, or leave it in place as a protective mulch over winter, then remove in the spring just as new growth appears.
'Stella de Oro' is largely free of serious pest and disease issues. Mites, aphids, and thrips may appear occasionally, and fungal rust disease may be a problem in some regions.
