Daylily 'Chicago Blackout', Day Lily 'Chicago Blackout', 'Chicago Blackout' Daylily, Midseason Daylilies
Vigorous, Hemerocallis ‘Chicago Blackout’ is a captivating midseason Daylily that produces blooms of large, 6 in. wide (15 cm), dark-red trumpets, almost-black, with a nicely contrasting lemon-yellow throat. Each flower typically lasts no more than 24 hours (thus the common name ‘Daylily’), opening up in the morning and withering during the forthcoming night, possibly replaced by another one on the same scape (flower stalk) the next day. This tetraploid Daylily is semi-evergreen.
