Exotic Candy Daylily

Hemerocallis ‘Exotic Candy’ is a fragrant reblooming daylily with light pink flowers, a dark rose-red eye, and a green throat. The American Daylily Society records the selection at 26 inches tall, with 4.25-inch flowers that bloom in midseason and rebloom. ## Flowers and season The single flowers open during the day and add a bright focal point above the grassy foliage. Plant ‘Exotic Candy’ in a sunny perennial border, where its pink petals and contrasting eye can be appreciated up close. The American Daylily Society describes the cultivar as very fragrant and lists it as dormant, tetraploid, and reblooming. ## Placement Allow room for a mature clump to spread; the catalog’s current width range is 18–24 inches. Daylilies are adaptable, but flowering is generally strongest with ample sun and evenly moist, well-drained soil. A commercial cultivar profile lists Zones 3–9, while the American Daylily Society’s registration provides the cultivar-specific flower, scape, bloom-season, fragrance, and foliage details. ## Maintenance Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves for a tidy appearance. Keep the plant watered as it establishes and during extended dry periods, then divide the clump if it becomes crowded.
