Plant Type: Daylilies

‘Blood, Sweat and Tears’ is aptly named to reference the years of hard work by renowned breeder Karol Emmerich to find a truly exceptional red daylily. Massive 6″ raspberry red flowers are complemented by a wide rosy pink eye that leads to a yellow throat. A thin white margin edges each petal. Flowers are held on proportionate scapes, just above the foliage. There are no hardiness concerns with this red daylily as it was bred and selected in Minnesota.

Tetraploid.
