YOU CAN EAT DAYLILY BLOOMS #tnnursery #nativeplants #garden #gardening #nature #ornamentalgarden

Hey everyone, it's Bailey with TN Nursery, and today I'm showing you some orange daylily. Now these are common orange daylily. This is what we sell. We sell a lot of these. They're very popular. The most interesting thing you can do to these is you can fry up the buds or the petals. The unopened flower buds is often sautéed or battered and fried and tossed into salads or soups. They're used a lot in cooking. I've never did it, but they can— it can be done. They thrive in full sun, and if you ever see these growing somewhere in the woods, that's an old house place because they're not native to here, but we brought them over in the 1800s. They thrive in full sun. They love poor soil. If you got somewhere that will not grow any flowers you want them to, you can plant these and they'll thrive there. They survive harsh winters up to -30 degrees. The blooms open in early morning and they bloom all summer long. They're hardy, they never get a disease, they're real hardy. Many people use them in cottage gardens. You can't go wrong with planting these, they're hardy, low maintenance, and you can get them on our website right now, buy one get one free at TNNursery.net, and it won't be long before you can have a flower bed like this. This is about a 5-year-old bed of daylilies.
