Daylily Valibuk

The daylily Valibuk comes from the hybridizing program of the Slovak breeder Martin Kamenský. Valibuk is a known character from a classic Slovak fairy tale, known for his size and power. The name of this perennial underscores its size (about 20 cm flower on average) and the strong growth rate. In the center of the brick-red flower is a shining, yellow throat. Large dark-pink UFO with a big green throat. It starts to bloom in early July. Even if it is reblooming, it is very well branched and blooms for a relatively long time. This is a great perennial, very tall with well branched stalks and huge flowers.

How to grow daylilies

Reserve full sunlight or light shade area in your garden to plant daylilies. Daylilies like sunshine so much but be careful, in hot areas, they do not grow well in completely dry soil on sunny place. Daylilies also like an average amount of moisture in the soil but will not be happy in soils that are water logged. Give them water regularly during their first one or two growing seasons. Their flowers will be larger and will bloom richer if regularly watered in the first part of the season.

When in bloom, feel free to cut the flowers for bouquets or even decorating of salads (as the flowers are edible). This will not injure your plants. While each flower blooms only a single day, choose stems with several larger buds.

After blooming has finished, leave the foliage in place, don't cut it off. The leaves will gather sunlight and will provide nourishment for the next year's show. Your daylilies will need rest for a few months, before beginning the next growing season.
