Ruffled & Edged Daylilies
Look close at the edge of a daylily petal and you'll find some of the fanciest details in the garden. Ruffled daylilies have wavy, pleated edges that give the bloom a full, frilly look. Edged daylilies add a border in a contrasting color, called a picotee, or a shimmering gold or silver edge. Some even have "teeth," little hooks and points along the rim.
These details are what make people stop and take a closer look. Ruffles and edges catch the light and make each bloom look rich, especially on tetraploids, which often have the heavy substance to carry big ruffles. Plant them where you can see them up close, like by the front walk, around a patio or in containers.
Ruffling and edging can show up stronger in warm weather and on established plants, and a little weaker on young plants or in a cool spell. Our selection covers pinks, oranges, reds, purples and yellows, including plenty of rebloomers and a few fragrant ones. Each plant page lists color, bloom season, height, ploidy and foliage type.
Getting them home: Every plant here is grown at our nursery in Vale, North Carolina. Pick yours up free in a full 3-gallon grow bag, or have it shipped bare-root, with the shipping cost shown in your cart. Daylilies grow across most of the country. Check the foliage type on each page if your climate is very cold or very warm.

FAQ
What is a picotee edge?
It's a thin border in a different color from the rest of the petal, like a purple edge on a pink bloom.
Why aren't the ruffles as big as in the photo?
Ruffling and edges often get stronger once the plant is established and in warm weather. Young plants and cool spells can tone them down.
Are ruffled daylilies hard to grow?
No. They grow like any daylily. Full sun brings out the best color and detail.
