A week or two ago I transplanted "Coleman Hawkins" to a more prominent location so I can appreciate it even more next summer. This daylily is a must-have, especially if you live in a northern climate like I do. No special care required; just plant, keep the weeds away, and it blooms like crazy. The plant is super showy, large, and in-your-face beautiful. Registration data says that the flowers are 8 inches, but mine occasionally grow even larger -- bonus!
Coleman Hawkins is an award-winning Dan Bachman daylily, introduced in 2001 and hybridized in Ohio. Last summer my plant started blooming on July 9 and continued through August 16. Yes, really... I keep stats on all my daylilies. Knowing each plant's bloom time helps me decide where I place plants so I can achieve balanced bloom in my garden throughout the summer. It also makes decisions easier when it comes time to thin the herd. And just so you know, Coleman Hawkins is going nowhere. Gallop-on Coleman.
