Hemerocallis 'On and On': Blooming Without Pause, Beauty Without Fuss
True to its name, Hemerocallis 'On and On' delivers a nearly endless supply of soft pink blooms throughout the growing season. Each flower opens with delicate, shell-pink petals accented by a pale yellow throat, creating a light and cheerful presence in the garden. Compact, tidy, and wonderfully prolific, this reblooming variety offers both beauty and reliability—an ideal choice for sunny beds, borders, and container gardens that crave low-maintenance colour from summer into fall.

Plant Characteristics:

  • Height: 40–50 cm
  • Spread: 45–60 cm, forming a compact, arching clump
  • Flower Colour: Soft shell pink with a pale yellow throat; lightly ruffled petals
  • Flowering Period: Early summer to fall; strong, continuous rebloom
  • Foliage: Arching, green, grass-like leaves; deciduous
  • Sunlight Requirements: Full sun to part shade
  • Soil Requirements: Moist, well-drained soil; tolerant of various soil types including clay, loam, and sandy soil

Uses and Benefits: On and On is a top performer for borders, edging, mass plantings, or containers—anywhere you want long-lasting bloom with minimal upkeep. Its soft colouring makes it easy to pair with pastels or contrast with deeper hues, and its compact form keeps it looking neat throughout the season. Like all daylilies, it is drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and attracts butterflies and bees.

Companion Plants: Pair with Veronica 'Magic Show Pink Potions', whose delicate pink spikes echo On and On’s soft hues while adding upright contrast. Add Heuchera 'Paris' for coral-pink flower sprays and attractive mounded foliage that provides season-long texture. Finish the planting with Sedum 'Lime Zinger', whose fleshy, chartreuse-edged leaves and rosy blooms provide a cool-toned contrast and extend interest into fall.

Care Instructions: Plant in full sun for best flower production; part shade is tolerated, especially in hot summer regions. Water regularly during the first year; once established, plants are drought-tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to promote continuous blooming. Cut back foliage in late fall or early spring, and divide every 3–4 years to maintain vigour.

History: Hemerocallis 'On and On' is a modern reblooming cultivar bred for extended performance, improved flower form, and a soft colour palette that complements a wide range of garden styles. It has quickly become a favourite among landscape designers and home gardeners alike for its nonstop blooms and effortless charm.

Final Thoughts: With its steady flowering and gentle beauty, Hemerocallis 'On and On' is the very definition of a reliable garden workhorse. Whether you're designing a romantic border or seeking a cheerful bloom for a container, it provides season-long interest with grace and ease. A quiet star that just keeps shining—on and on.
