Plant Type: Daylilies

It’s an unusual color to describe, but somehow the name is quite fitting.  With an edge like a bubbly stuffed pizza, the flowers of ‘Pizza Crust’ are a unique blend of pale peach, rose, and cream with a yellow glow that radiates out from the lime green throat.  The broad, thick, crimped petals are lightly rimmed in yellow and open wide to reveal the triangular flower form.

The large six inch, fragrant blossoms are held on strong, erect, well-branched and budded scapes beginning in late July.

Tetraploid.
