Little Business Daylily

Hemerocallis 'Little Business' is a compact daylily with red, single flowers and a green throat. The American Hemerocallis Society records 3-inch flowers on 15-inch scapes, early to midseason bloom, rebloom, and semi-evergreen foliage; nursery listings describe flowering from early summer into fall. [American Hemerocallis Society](https://daylilies.org/cultivar/little-business/) and [Spring Hill Nurseries](https://springhillnursery.com/products/little_business_daylily-hemerocallis_little_business). ## Bloom and placement The short flower stems suit the front of a sunny or partly shaded border, a path edge, or a roomy container. Allow approximately 18-24 inches for the mature spread and leave space around the crown for airflow.

Once established, daylilies need less attention, though steady growing-season moisture supports bloom. Avoid sites where water remains pooled around the crown.

The semi-evergreen leaves may persist in mild winters; remove dead or damaged foliage as needed. Divide older clumps every few years if they become crowded or flower less freely.
