The “Prince of Pirates” is not a registered daylily (Hemerocallis). It is often confused with well-known varieties like the award-winning Crimson Pirate daylily, or it may be referencing Siloam Royal Prince.

The “Prince of Pirates” is actually a celebrated cultivar of Tall Bearded Iris rather than a daylily. It is a highly sought-after perennial noted for its ruffled, orchid and rose-toned flowers. [1, 2, 3]
Key Characteristics
  • Type: Tall Bearded Iris (frequently confused with daylilies due to its intricate, layered petals).
  • Color: Features rich orchid-to-rose colored blossoms.
  • Bloom Time: Typically mid-to-late spring. [1, 2, 3]
