'Laughing Skies' is my first "must have" daylily, when my Zone 6a garden was in the infancy stage, three years ago!! The color combination caught my eye right away, along with its bloom size and form, and it was love at first sight! 'Laughing Skies' is the sole culprit for my addiction to daylilies!
It grows well in my gardens, despite the shade it receives, beginning in the mid afternoon. It is increasing a bit on the slow to medium side, and the bloom colors are slightly watered down, but I chalk that up to its location in my garden. Until just a couple weeks ago, full sun locations had been at an extremely high premium, on my small city lot, but we lost a very large tree, this 2017 Spring, and I couldn't be more excited for more bloomin' holes to fill! Wink, wink - nudge, nudge!
'Laughing Skies' will be moved to that full sun location, this 2017 Spring. It will always be one of my top few faves, and it is very striking in the garden!
