it's flowers are lily like not fragant at all it's leaves grwo grass like extremely huge it can be divide it by "steam" separation (it does nt have steam at all) I don't know if it property of the plant but the flowers only last one day
What's the common and scientific name of this folowing plant?
Common name: Daylily.
Scientific name: Hemerocallis.
The daylilies comprise the small genus Hemerocallis of flowering plants in the family Hemerocallidaceae. Despite the name they are not true lilies (Lilium, Liliaceae). The name Hemerocallis is based on the Greek words for day and beauty, which reflects the fact that the individual flowers last for only one day. The flowers of most species open at sunrise and wither at sunset, to be replaced by another one (sometimes two or none) on the same stem the next day; some species are night-blooming. Because individual flowers are short-lived, they do not make good cut flowers for formal flower arranging although they otherwise make good cut flowers as new flowers will continue to open on cut stems over several days.
Originally from Eurasia, native from Europe to China, Korea, and Japan, their large showy flowers have made them popular worldwide, and there are over 60,000 registered named cultivars. Only a few cultivars are scented; some will rebloom later in the season, particularly if their developing seed pods are removed.
The alternating lanceolate leaves are grouped into fans (a clump also containing the roots and the crown). The crown of a daylily is the small white portion of the stem, between the leaves and the roots. This crown is an essential part of the fan. Along the scape, proliferations may form at nodes or in bracts. These proliferations form roots when planted and are the exact clones of the parent plant. Some daylilies show spindlelike widenings at the roots, used mostly for water storage.
Reply:it would be best if you take a picture.
Reply:It's not a day lilly because their blooms last a lot more than just one day.
Reply:It sounds like you have a day-lily (Hemerocallis fulva). They come in many shades of orange, yellow and reddish orange although new varieties are cropping up all the time. This is a very hardy plant, It's main requirement is at least half a day of sunlight for best growth. It will eventually form a clump which can be divided and plants put in a new location.
Reply:Dafodils possibly.
Reply:It could be a blackberry lily - it grows like a wide grass - as if it were pressed together and flattened....the flower curls as a bud and uncurls to a small lily with specks on it.
But more detail of this plant would be helpful... ie: full sun? height? blooms per branch or single stem? bulb or tuber or root? Is there a seed pod or cluster? Where do you live?(zone)
And yes, a picture would help.
It's hard to go by a small description if you truly want the right answer.
