Design Palette: Daylily

Today I'm sharing the second in a series of posts with garden-inspired palettes. (You can see the original video showing the beginnings of my color inspiration; the first palette post with Rose Campion is here.)

Friday's inspiration comes from my favorite daylily (Hemerocallis). Daylilies are hardy perennials with over 60,000 cultivars in a wide variety of colors. I have several in my gardens, but my absolute favorite is this plum-colored beauty. Petals traced with aubergine swirl around a center of bright green, topped with bright orange stamens and ivory styles. Here's a possible palette, and below it several favor designs that feature these colors. For more inspiration, please see our Daylily board on Pinterest!

Do you grow daylilies? What color is your favorite?
