Light Apricot Daylily Early summer Rebloomer

‘Apricot Sparkles’ is a compact daylily with single apricot flowers that shade through yellow toward a green throat. Its American Hemerocallis Society record lists 4-inch blooms on 18-inch scapes, an extra-early season, and rebloom, so a succession of flowers may extend beyond the first flush. ## Placement and seasonal interest The smaller stature suits the front of a sunny border, an edging, or a roomy container. Its warm flower color pairs well with blue, purple, or white perennials, while the narrow, arching leaves keep a tidy clump between flowering periods. ## Growing conditions Plant in fertile soil that holds moisture but drains freely. Full sun encourages the best flowering; in hotter sites, some afternoon shade may help protect blooms. Water during dry spells, especially while buds are forming, and avoid waterlogged soil. The [RHS daylily guide](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/hemerocallis) summarizes these growing preferences. ## Maintenance Remove faded blooms and seed pods to keep the clump neat, then cut each finished flower stalk near the base. Trim dead leaves as they age and divide a crowded clump in early spring or early autumn. See the [registered cultivar record](https://daylilies.org/cultivar/apricot-sparkles/) for its color and flowering details.
