Thompson & Morgan Hemerocallis Longfield's Black Magic 1 Bare Root Plant (Size 1)

Extraordinary, large, purple-black blooms with delicately crimped edges make this a real show-stopper! The dramatic blooms are produced on uprights stems above slender, strap-like foliage. Hemerocallis ‘Longfield’s Black Magic’ is a reliable, easy grow perennial with a neat, clump forming habit. The dark flower colour makes this a great accent plant among paler varieties, bringing contrast and theatre to sunny borders. Plant bareroot daylilies at the earliest opportunity following delivery in moist, well-drained, fertile soil, and situated in full sun. Growing Hemerocallis plants in dry soils or shaded conditions may reduce the number of flowers produced. For the best performance keep day lily plants well-watered whilst they are in flower and deadhead faded daylily flowers regularly. In autumn, remove any old, ragged foliage and apply a mulch of well-rotted manure or garden compost around the base of daylily plants.
