The “Rivulets in Hot Pink” daylily (Hemerocallis) is a striking, vibrantly colored perennial cultivar recognized by its intense pink petals and a signature contrasting chartreuse (lime green/yellow) throat. [1, 2, 3]
Key Characteristics & Care
- Flower Details: Features a trumpet-shaped bloom with ruffled edges, showcasing deeply saturated hot pink pigments. [1, 2, 3]
- Light Needs: Thrives best in full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily) to maximize color intensity. However, in extreme summer heat (like the tropical conditions found in parts of India), it appreciates afternoon shade to prevent the blooms from fading. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Soil Requirements: Prefers fertile, moist, but well-drained loam. Daylilies are highly resilient once established and possess good drought tolerance. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Bloom Time: Generally flowers from mid to late summer, with individual blooms lasting about 24 hours. [1]
Sourcing & Availability
This specific cultivar is a niche variety. In India and surrounding regions, it is primarily sourced through specialty growers. You can occasionally find listings for this plant on international and regional specialty sites like Mooiplaas Iris & Daylilies.
