Daylilies?

Daylily - a perfect example of alluring beauty. You are given only one single day to admire its  lilylike flowers. If you are late they are gone forever. But do not get disappointed. The next bunch of buds will break the following day to bask in the sun.
In contrast to the ephemeral flowers the plant is one of the sturdiest known to gardeners, and it does reflect the core meaning of the word "perennial" which in Latin means: more than two years. It definitely lives longer than that. What is more, it is a dream  plant for breeders who have been busy creating new cultivars with  stunning flowers that can take our breath away. 
Beautiful and indestructible - a rare combination even among plants. A plant which deserves our attention and care. In reality, daylilies can perfectly do without both of them. But it is hard not to be kind to them for their persistent growth and blooming. And not to become crazy about them knowing that there are more  than 60 000 cultivars and new ones are waiting in line. What a secure hobby to take up!
