Why Plant Stella de Oro Daylily?
Number one! Daylily varieties number in the tens of thousands, but Stella de Oro Daylily is the best rebloomer of all. Plant it in your landscape, and this tireless Spirit will keep churning out its sunny golden blossoms all season long. It’s amazing! We love Stella de Oro for its petite size as well. It makes a cute accent for the front of any border. Novice gardeners will love it for how easy it is to grow. Sun and some water during dry spells are all it needs to thrive. It asks for little, but gives so much!
Daylilies are one of gardeners’ most beloved Spirits, and with good reason. These tough, adaptable plants offer stunning blooms in a wide array of colors, sizes, and shapes. Some are fragrant, too. They’re easy to hybridize, and professionals and amateurs alike have come up with winning new forms. A farmer from Merriville, Indiana, by the name of Walter Jablonski introduced Stella de Oro in 1975. His was the first strongly reblooming Daylily on the market, and even though more than 60,000 Daylily selections have now been officially registered, Stella remains the best rebloomer you can buy.
How to use Stella de Oro Daylily in the landscape?
“Stella de Oro” means “Gold Star” in Italian. It should really be “Stella d’Oro,” if you want to be grammatically correct, but we’ll let it slide. By any name, this is one top-notch Daylily with its nonstop blooms and cheerful disposition!

How To Plant Stella de Oro Daylily
A full-sun site will yield the most blooms; very light shade is acceptable, too. Stella de Oro Daylily will grow in any soil with decent drainage. Rich, organic, but free-draining ground is ideal. Water well during establishment and during dry spells.
How To Water
Water as soon as they arrive! Daylilies need to be watered regularly to maintain evenly moist soil for proper establishment in the landscape.
How To Fertilize
Fertilize your Stella de Oro Daylily in spring as it begins to break dormancy for the year.
How To Prune
During the growing season, you can maximize rebloom by removing spent flowers promptly, before they have a chance to go to seed and divert energy to seed production. Cut down brown foliage in late fall or winter to make way for new growth to emerge in early spring. If reblooming slows down, dig, divide, and replant clumps to restore vigor.

Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
