This unique flower sends its foliage in the spring and has lovely smooth green leaves into summer. those die away and suddenly, in the late September/early October, seemingly overnight, a flower spike rises from the ground (or from the dead leaves, thus the resurrection part of it all) and gives you a beautiful, showy soft pink flower. These are truly unique and a great gardening conversation piece. They will be shipped freshly dug as a bareroot plant. Perfect for early spring, summer or early fall planting. Would not advise planting in the winter, of course. Remember that these are a live, bareroot plant. Please order them during a time of year that they can be safely shipped in non-freezing temperatures. All orders Daylily Nursery brand and are grown here. All orders are shipped with Daylily Nursery branded packing material and Daylily Nursery copyrighted growing instructions. Zone 6-10.
