Garden Winner: Daylily ‘Buttered Popcorn’

Considered one of the longest-blooming, large-flowered daylilies, you can’t go wrong with ‘Buttered Popcorn.’

The golden-yellow blooms are gorgeous and this plant will perform just about anywhere. I grow ‘Buttered Popcorn’ in both sun and shade, and I’ve even stuck a few where nothing else would survive. The plant happily thrives and sends up bloom after beautiful bloom.

‘Buttered Popcorn’ grows 32 inches tall with 6-inch fragrant flowers and is dazzling by itself or in a clump:

This weekend I was cleaning up the garden at my husband’s office when I was surprised to discover that the ‘Buttered Popcorn’ daylilies I planted there have several new scapes just loaded with buds. That’s pretty amazing for this late in the season.
