Hemerocallis - Gentle Shepherd
A refined, semi-evergreen daylily, ‘Gentle Shepherd’ displays large, gently ruffled ivory-white blossoms approximately 5″ wide, each accented by a bright yellow‑green throat in early to mid-summer. Sporting tidy clumps of arching green foliage around 26–30″ tall and 18–24″ wide, it brings a serene, elegant charm to garden borders and containers. An award-winning diploid (AHS Award of Merit, 1987), this cultivar is praised as one of the finest white daylilies, thriving in average, moist but well-drained soils, full sun to part shade, and tolerant of heat, humidity, drought, clay soils, and rabbit browsing. It also attracts butterflies and hummingbirds, adding wildlife appeal with minimal care requirements.
