The Hemerocallis cultivar, 'Spacecoast No
Drone Zone' identified as seedling number
488-21, is a distinctive tetraploid exhibiting
ornamental excellence coupled with robust
horticultural traits. The flowers display a
vivid magenta hue, complemented by a
striking starburst-patterned slate-blue eye
zone that adorns both petals and sepals.
This visual complexity is enhanced by the
sepals, which are delicately edged in
white, and a prominent green throat that
serves as a central focal point. This daylily
reaches a height of 34 inches and blooms
in the early to midseason, featuring
evergreen foliage that supports extended
morning opening (emo) and fragrant (fr)
characteristics. The flowers themselves
are substantial, measuring 6.5 inches in
diameter, and the plant demonstrates
dynamic branching with 5-7 ways per
scape and a high bud count of 28-38,
ensuring a prolific blooming period.
Spacecoast No Drone Zone is fertile both
ways, enhancing its value for hybridization
efforts, and is noted as a reliable
rebloomer, providing sustained beauty
throughout the growing season. It exhibits
very good resistance to rust, leaf streak,
and insect predation, highlighting its
resilience and adaptability. Suitable for
growth in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones
5-10, this daylily cultivar combines striking
aesthetic attributes with strong agronomic
performance, making it a valuable addition
to diverse garden settings and breeding
programs focused on developing new
daylily varieties with enhanced visual
appeal and environmental robustness.
