Hemerocallis fulva (scientific name: Hemerocallis fulva) is a perennial herbaceous root. With short rhizome and thick spindle-shaped fleshy roots. Hemerocallis has many aliases, including "lily needle", "day lily", "forget-worn grass", "yinan grass", "healing sorrow", "deer arrow" and other names.
Hemerocallis fulva is called "Tiger Lily" in English (this is also the English name of curliculata). When eaten, it is often called "golden needle". Its leaves are flat and long in shape, and the underground stems are slightly poisonous and cannot be eaten directly.
The flower shape is that during the flowering period, slender green flowering branches will grow. The flowers are orange-yellow in color, have long flower stalks, and are tube-shaped like lilies. The fruit produced has wings. It is commonly cultivated throughout the country and wild in provinces and regions south of the Qinling Mountains.
Although Hemerocallis flowers were originally produced in China, they have not been improved much for a long time. After the 1930s, some botanical gardens and gardening enthusiasts in the United States collected Hemerocallis plants from China, Japan and other countries and conducted cross-breeding. Now there are more than 10,000 varieties.
It has become an important ornamental and cut flower, and it is also the most diverse type of flowers in the Liliaceae family. At the same time, Hemerocallis is also the mother flower of China.
