Enhance your garden with Hemerocallis ‘Red Hot Returns’, a reblooming daylily featuring vibrant cherry-red flowers with a yellow halo and apple-green throat. This perennial offers an extended bloom season from early midseason through fall, with flowers lasting longer than many other daylilies.

These vigorous plants form lush clumps of dark green foliage and produce multiple flower scapes per fan, providing abundant blooms ideal for perennial borders, pollinator gardens, mass plantings, containers, and low-maintenance landscapes.

Daylilies are known for their adaptability and toughness, thriving in poor soils, drought conditions, urban settings, roadside plantings, and near Black Walnut trees.

You will receive 3 Grade #1 bare root plants, selected for vigorous growth and reliable flowering performance, with healthy dormant roots ready for planting.
