Spider daylilies
Spiders have long narrow flower petals. The petal length to width ratio must be 4:1 or greater.
These daylilies associate well with grasses and are becoming increasingly popular. We have put daylilies in the category of Unusual Form together with the spiders as they appear spider-like but do not have the appropriate dimensions.
They tend to show some twisting, curling or pinching in the flower segments which give them a sculptured, almost architectural look. These can be very interesting to use in garden design.
