This petite daylily is all business when it comes to blooming. Fountain-like mounds of rich green leaves set the stage for a parade of blooms in knockout raspberry red. 3″ flowers on petite 12-15″ stems make Little Business perfect for edging a full sun or partially shaded border or pathway, or growing in a container. Early to midsummer blooms are often followed by repeat blooms that last until fall. Hemerocallis ‘Little Business’
