Most red daylilies look more on the purple or pink side, but if you’re looking for that bright candy-apple color, you’re going to want to plant this cultivar. It’s considered one of the best red daylilies on the market, and it won’t fade in the summer sunshine. Not only is the color outstanding, the flowers are huge, reaching about 6-7″, and delightfully fragrant. It’s a pretty consistent rebloomer and easily draws beneficial pollinators into your garden. Hemerocallis ‘Passion for Red’ We provide such a great selection of daylilies, like Passion for Red, because they’re so easily long-lived. You can expect a handsome mound of foliage from spring into fall, joined by tons of one-a-day flowers through a long bloom season. Come drought, deer, poor soil, slopes, pests and diseases, these daylilies will shine for years to come.
