As mentioned by CompactFlax:

Despite the captions Hemerocallis is not native to North America, but serves here as a colourful addition, adding some red depth.

Sticking only to native plants doesn’t always give a pleasing result (especially in more extreme climates); it’s perfectly ok to mix them in with nonnative (noninvasive) species to add some variety. Having some native plants is better than a manicured lawn and entirely nonnative species!
