Chili Spice is a unusual-form daylily with red cream bitone with cream midrib and edge above yellow, giving it strong presence in a mixed daylily planting. We list it with 22 in scapes, 6 in blooms, early season, tetraploid, semi-evergreen so gardeners can compare it quickly with other varieties in the field. Notable traits include rebloom potential. It is a good candidate for shoppers who want a named cultivar with clear details and current Hillside Lilies availability.
Color & form: Red cream bitone with cream midrib and edge above yellow green throat; 6 in blooms, unusual form
Bloom time in Vale, NC: photographed in bloom in our garden on June 19, 2026; AHS season: extra early; registered as a rebloomer
Bloom factoid: We only have one season of bloom photos so far (2026), so the jury's still out on its Vale, NC timing. That's a bit later than its registered AHS season (extra early) would suggest.
