Like a lemon tart with leaves, Hemerocallis ‘Buttered Popcorn’, a daylily, is a fragrant treat that everyone can enjoy. Its butter yellow blooms spread 3 inches across and add a lovely aroma to gardens and cut flower arrangements.

Hemerocallis ‘Buttered Popcorn’ is quite healthy and can adapt to poor soil and resist urban pollutants all while reliably delivering unique texture and charming buttery color for months. The blooms begin in early summer and don’t stop until the middle of fall inviting butterflies and hummingbirds as it shines throughout the season. Its stems are slender and leafless and what foliage it does present is grassy and unobtrusive, serving to enhance the beauty of its blooms while also suppressing the rise or weeds with its groundcover habit.

Hemerocallis ‘Buttered Popcorn’ is easy to care for and needs only full to partial sunlight and well-drained soil. Splitting every few years is a good habit to adopt, and shearing will promote the growth of new, healthy foliage.
