Hemerocallis 'Red Velvet' (Red Velvet Daylily) - This is an evergreen variety with large rich red flowers that have a velvet-like texture. A mid-season rebloomer. Strong foliage matures to 24 inches tall. A favorite in the nursery. We received this plant many years ago unnamed and to distinguish it from other unnamed red forms, we applied this moniker. It is a real show stopper! Plant in full sun to partial shade and provide regular water. 

Information displayed on this page about Hemerocallis 'Red Velvet' is based on our research conducted about this plant in our nursery library as well as from information provided by reliable online resources. We also include our own observations made about it as it has grown in the nursery gardens and other gardens visited, as well how the crops of this plant performed in the containers in our nursery field. We will also include comments received from others and welcome hearing from anyone who has information about this plant, particularly if it includes cultural information aiding others to better grow it.

 
San Marcos Growers closed for regular business at the end of 2025 as the property is being developed for affordable housing.
While our gates remain closed, we will open them by appointment so we can liquidate remaining plants, supplies and equipment. The plants remaining in the field are listed on our Live Inventory Page.
