Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Heartbeat of Heaven')

Heartbeat of Heaven is a great plant. I have been growing it for 5 years in my zone 8 garden. I find that it is a bit shorter than the 32" it is registered as and the bud count is typically around 16.

It is fertile both ways and is a great parent. 68 flowers have been registered with it as a parent, with many more sure to follow.

I would recommend this flower.

Heartbeat of Heaven is a beautiful Daylily and performs wonderfully in zone 6b, southern Kentucky. It is a medium grower and does not increase quickly but blooms consistently and is very easy to set pods on.

I have had Heartbeat of Heaven for 5 years and love it!!!! It doesn't increase very fast but blooms for a long time. I have never actually counted buds but I would bet it has over 20 per scape. Scapes grow to their 32" height here. The first 2 years I had it, I could not set any pods and even the pollen didn't work. Once it settled in I have set many pods on it. Last summer it did rebloom for me. The flowers never fade here and have great substance. Can't say enough positive about this plant!!!!

HEARTBEAT OF HEAVEN

I have had 'Heartbeat of Heaven' for 4 years and like it very much. I have found its color can vary quite a bit (as you can see from the several pictures from different growers here on this forum), but that is one of the things I like about it!



I have not kept any record of branching, bud count, etc. but as I recall it blooms for quite a long time.
I took above photo because it showed a bloom with more yellow than usual and just looked so pretty!
