Barbara Mitchell Daylily

‘Barbara Mitchell’ is a pink, semi-evergreen daylily with a green throat and a midseason reblooming habit. The American Hemerocallis Society records 6-inch flowers on 20-inch scapes; a local garden reference also describes a clump about 18 inches to 2 feet tall and wide. ## Placement and seasonal interest Set this long-lived clump in a sunny border or parkway where its soft pink flowers can repeat through summer. It tolerates a range of soils and can handle heat and lower-water conditions once established, though steady moisture supports flowering. ## Growing conditions Full sun generally gives the best bloom, with some afternoon shade acceptable in hot climates. Use ordinary garden soil that drains well and water deeply during extended dry weather. Avoid prolonged waterlogging and allow room for the clump to widen. ## Maintenance Deadhead spent flowers to keep the plant tidy and encourage another flush. After flowering, cut back old stalks; remove dead foliage as the clump declines in fall.
