Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus

Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus, commonly known as daylily or golden daylily, is a plant traditionally used in East Asian herbal medicine. While its specific traditional uses are not well-documented, it has been studied for its potential medicinal properties and genetic insights. Scientific evidence suggests that VSPB (a preparation derived from Hemerocallis) effectively inhibits enzyme activities, minimizes nutrient degradation, and maintains cell structure integrity better than conventional blanching methods. Additionally, the complete chloroplast genome of a related cultivar has been sequenced, providing valuable genetic information. Studies have also identified new compounds in other Hemerocallis species, such as roots of H. fulva var. kwanso, showing potential PTP1B inhibitory activity and 131 volatile organic compounds in H. fulva 'Shaman', including terpenoids, alcohols, and esters. Safety concerns are currently minimal; no major issues have been recorded. There are also no known drug interactions associated with Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus.
