Each bloom opens to reveal deep purple petals edged with distinctive frilly white to cream ruffles, creating an elegant contrast that draws the eye from across the garden. A fresh lime-green throat sits at the centre of each flower, adding a third dimension of colour that lifts the entire bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003eBettylen is promoted by some suppliers as an exceptionally prolific flowering variety, and in optimal conditions, mature plants are expected to produce abundant blooms over a long season. The compact mounds of arching green foliage are topped by sturdy, well-branched scapes that hold the flowers in an attractive display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003eThis is a dormant variety, meaning the foliage dies back over winter before emerging with vigorous new growth in spring. The main flowering period falls in early to mid-summer, and in favourable conditions, additional blooms may appear later in the season. The compact growth makes Bettylen an excellent choice for borders, container planting and mass displays where its generous flowering can create a spectacular effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 10.0pt 0cm 5.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13.0pt;\"\u003eHow to Grow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003ePlant daylily bare root divisions in mild weather, usually autumn to early winter in many Australian regions. Choose full sun to part shade. In hot inland, subtropical and arid areas, morning sun with afternoon protection is safer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003ePlant into fertile, free-draining soil improved with compost or aged organic matter. Avoid waterlogged sites. Set the crown at soil level or just lightly covered, then spread the roots out gently and firm the soil around them. Space plants 40 to 60 cm apart, depending on the variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003eWater in well after planting. Keep soil evenly moist while plants establish. Once established, daylilies tolerate short dry spells, but flowering is better with regular deep watering during active growth. Feed in spring with a balanced slow-release fertiliser. Avoid excessive nitrogen if flowering is poor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003eRemove spent flower stems after flowering. Tidy old foliage as needed.

Keep plants, flowers, pollen, cut stems and vase water away from cats. Seek urgent veterinary advice if a cat may have chewed, licked or swallowed any part of the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\"\u003eDaylilies are mainly a serious risk to cats.
