Plant Type: Daylilies

‘Marque Moon’ sets the new standard for white daylilies as its form is greatly improved. Extravagant ruffling unlike any other lends a fancy, elegant look to the blossoms. The large 5-5½”, fragrant, cream colored blossoms have a yellow throat that radiates softly out onto the petals. This yellow coloring is repeated on the picotee edge around each rounded petal. On cloudy days, you can detect a hint of peach color in the flower, and on sunny days you can see the diamond dust sparkling on the petals.

This is a heavily budded daylily that can produce an incredible forty buds per scape.  It forms a compact clump of narrow, arching foliage topped with large flowers in midsummer.

Tetraploid.
