Primal Scream Daylily

One of the most sought-after daylilies available today; winner of the 2003 Stout Medal (the highest honor a daylily can receive). If you're looking for the WOW! factor in daylilies, you've found it here with 'Primal Scream'. Nothing comes close to the spectacular 7½-8½ inch, glimmering tangerine orange, gold dusted blossoms and green throat of this selection. Officially classified as "unusual form", the tepals are narrow, twisted, and recurved with loosely ruffled edges. These gigantic blossoms are presented in late midsummer on tall, graceful, willowy scapes above the attractive arching foliage. With such a distinctive presence, 'Primal Scream' is sure to steal the show in the garden and on retail benches when it's in bloom. A "tetraploid" variety with twice the chromosomes of old fashioned daylilies, which account for larger flowers, lasting color and unbeatable vigor. Hardy to -40°F Maximum Elevation: 7,500 ft.
