Red Ribbons Daylily

The Red Ribbons daylily (Hemerocallis 'Red Ribbons'), hybridized by Lenington and registered in 1964, evokes streaming red ribbons in the wind. This cultivar features flowers with long, narrow, ribbon-like petals in a vibrant red, often with a darker midrib.

The blooms are medium-sized with a distinctive, linear form. The plant forms a neat clump and blooms in mid-season. It is an early example of the "unusual form" class in daylilies.
