Hemerocallis 'Corky' is a daylily cultivar in the Asphodelaceae, a herbaceous, clump-forming 

. It produces basal, arching strap-like leaves and flowering scapes bearing blooms that typically last for a single day. Flowering in the UK occurs from June to August. The plant grows from rhizomes and may rely on fibrous or fibrous-tuberous roots for seasonal storage.

Hemerocallis 'Corky' sits in the Asphodelaceae family and belongs to the genus Hemerocallis, a group of perennial, rhizomatous plants originally from Asia. Cultivars in this group are the product of long-standing selection by growers and can be encountered widely in ornamental planting schemes; individual blooms characteristically open and fade within twenty-four hours, while the clump produces successive buds across the season. Growth arises from basal, strap-like leaves and underground rhizomes, with some Hemerocallis types also producing stolons; the root system can be fibrous or fibrous-tuberous and functions as a reserve for water and nutrients. In practice this means the plant re-establishes its leaf clump each year and carries flower scapes above the foliage during the June to August flowering period. For a UK gardener assessing placement, allow enough room for the clump to develop and to display the flowering scapes through summer. Observe the clump after flowering to judge whether renewal or splitting is needed to maintain vigour. Remember that the hallmark of Hemerocallis 'Corky' is its succession of short-lived individual flowers across the June–August window rather than long-lived single blooms.
