Hemerocallis sp. (Daylily / Lirio de día)

Taxinge castle park, Sweden.

 

Hemerocallis, the botanical name for Daylily means in Greek ''beautiful for a day'. Each flower only opens for one day. After it is spent, it is succeeded by the next day's blossom.

 

Daylilies are flowering queens for one day. Each bloom lasts a day but there is no need to worry – every stem bears more blooms and as the plants grow older they have numerous stems each.
