Hemerocallis 'Ruby Stella'
Choose Ruby Stella if you want a compact red reblooming daylily for sunny edging or massing. The tradeoff is deer: flowers and foliage can get browsed, so avoid it where deer feeding is routine.
Buy This If
You want red summer flowers.
You need a compact border plant.
You prefer simple perennial care.
Skip This If
Deer feed heavily nearby.
The bed stays wet.
You want a tall back-border plant.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
B+
The red flowers give stronger contrast than yellow daylilies, especially when planted in groups.
Growth Rate
A-
It fills in quickly for a perennial without becoming a large, hard-to-place plant.
Maintenance
A-
Once established, it asks for little beyond cleanup and occasional dividing.
Deer Resistance
C-
Deer readily browse this, so protect it or choose a more deer-resistant plant where pressure is heavy.
Small Space Fit
A
Its compact clumping habit works well along paths, patios, and the front of beds.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Ruby Stella in repeated groups along sunny edges, not as a single accent. If deer are regular visitors, pick a tougher deer-resistant perennial instead.

Customers Usually Ask
Will it bloom more than once?
Yes, it is grown for reblooming through the summer when sited well.
Does it need rich soil?
No, it handles dry-to-average beds once established, but avoid soggy spots.
Should I plant one or several?
Several usually looks better; one plant can feel too small in a border.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!

They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
