Plural of daylily; colorful flowering plants with lily-like blossoms that open in the morning and close by evening.
From 'day' + 'lily,' named Hemerocallis in Latin (Greek 'hemera' = day, 'kallos' = beauty). Each flower lasts only one day, hence the name.
Daylilies are the plant equivalent of fast fashion—gardeners breed new varieties obsessively, with over 80,000 registered cultivars, and plant collectors will drive hundreds of miles just to see rare ones bloom.
