Hemerocallis 'Little Grapette'
Choose Little Grapette Daylily for a compact purple edge or small mass planting that can take dry, sunny spots; the tradeoff is that deer may sample it and the flowers are seasonal, not constant.
Buy This If
You want compact purple summer flowers.
You need a tough edging perennial.
Your site runs dry between watering.
Skip This If
You need flowers all season nonstop.
Your bed is mostly shade.
You need height or privacy.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
B
It gives a clean purple flower show in season, but it is not a large focal-point plant.
Growth Rate
A-
It fills in quickly enough for borders without becoming hard to manage.
Maintenance
A-
It asks for little care beyond cleanup and occasional division when clumps get crowded.
Deer Resistance
C-
Deer readily browse this, so protect it or choose a more deer-resistant plant where pressure is heavy.
Small Space Fit
A
Its compact clumping habit makes it easy to use along edges and in tight perennial beds.
Screening Value
F
It is too short and seasonal to provide privacy or block views.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Little Grapette for front edges, mailbox beds, and small sunny groupings where the customer wants color without a fussy perennial.

Customers Usually Ask
Does it need deadheading?
Not required, but removing spent blooms keeps the planting neater.
Will it spread everywhere?
No, it forms clumps rather than running aggressively.
Can it handle dry soil?
Yes, once established, it handles dry-to-average conditions better than many flowering perennials.

Locally grown for New England conditions
Every plant in our Fall Sale is grown or hardened off right here in New Hampshire, so it's already acclimated to New England winters before it ever leaves our nursery.
We use your zone to recommend plants that survive your winters, and to estimate when your
order ships — we ship each plant when the weather where you live is right for it.

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!

Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
