Daylily plant height

Hemerocallis L.

This trait is defined as the height of the flowering stem from the soil level to the apex. Depending on this parameter, daylily cultivars are divided into groups: miniature (up to 30–40 cm), medium, and tall (up to 100–150 cm).

In the reference 4 varieties crop Daylily, where this is mentioned in the description.

For daylilies, plant height is a critical cultivar characteristic that specifically reflects the height of the scape, as the basal leaf rosette is significantly lower. Scientific observations record the variability of this trait in the range of 60 to 125 cm, while breeding forms can reach 150 cm.

Scape height determines the planting pattern: for low-growing cultivars, the optimal distance is about 40 cm, whereas for taller groups it increases to 60–80 cm to ensure proper bush ventilation. In landscape design, this trait serves as a key criterion for selecting the plant's placement in a composition, whether for a border or a specimen planting on a lawn.
