This review does NOT have to do with this plant. It is fantastic! It has to do with the claim of this company selling it! This daylily is called Ruby Spider and is WIDELY available for around $8-$10 for a double fan from many other sellers. Just do a google search. The hybridizer is NOT even mentioned here which is Stamile - introduced in 1991.

Unsatisfied Did not survive, inferior performance or did not bloom well - won't grow again.

This daylily is amazing. I purchased three of these last fall and divided them during planting. This summer each division sent up at least two scapes. The scapes were well branched and have ben producing blooms for at least three weeks. Picutres do not reveal the splendor or size of the red flowers.

Above Average Superior performance, among my favorites, would recommend to others.

Absolutely spectacular huge flowers. Pictures don't do them justice. Nice plant habit and long stems showing off the flowers far above the plant. A real Proven Winner in my book.
