Hemerocallis 'Rule of Plum' (Daylily)

Hemerocallis ‘Rule of Plum’
Daylily

Bring rich, dramatic color to the garden with this compact, floriferous daylily. ‘Rule of Plum’ produces 3" blooms in an exceptionally deep purple shade—one of the darkest colors found in daylilies. Even before the flowers open, the nearly black-purple buds add striking contrast to the garden.

Blooming early in the season, this variety is a great choice for adding bold color to borders, mixed plantings, and mass displays. Compared with older varieties like ‘Little Grapette’, ‘Rule of Plum’ offers larger flowers and a richer purple tone.

Daylilies are easy-care perennials valued for their reliable blooms, grassy foliage, and adaptability. Plant in full sun to part shade for best flowering.
