Daylily plant named ‘When My Sweetheart Returns’

Abstract

A new and distinct Hemerocallis cultivar of the dormant type named ‘When My Sweetheart Returns’ is provided. The new cultivar is very floriferous and forms attractive light creamy-lemon blossoms with a rose-colored eye over an extended period of time that commonly begins during mid-June and commonly ends during early to mid-October in USDA Hardiness Zone No. 7. The new plant readily forms fans and readily forms a number of scapes per fan. The new cultivar is particularly well suited for growing as distinctive colorful ornamentation in the landscape.
