Daylily Handwriting on the Wall Reblooming

Daylily bloom with a yellow-green throat, purple eye zone and peach-colored petals delicately edged in purple and green hues

Daylily Handwriting on the Wall Reblooming

Handwriting on the Wall is a reblooming attention getter for the landscape. This daylily is undeniably gorgeous with 6" peach-colored blooms with wine purple eye zones that blend to lavender toward yellow throats. Plus, it features a thin picotee edge that adds extra flair. We love these new and fragrant daylilies! They are lovely from top to bottom with semi-evergreen foliage and flowers that make quite an impression in sunny borders, mixed perennial garden beds and even as a summertime focal point planting, returning in fall for a second round of beauty and color. We suggest planting Handwriting on the Wall in drifts for greater impact.
