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 need winter screening.
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.
Screening Value
F
This is a flowering perennial, not a plant for privacy or blocking views.
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.
Why buy for fall color
See the actual color before you buy it
Foliage, berries and late bloom — all three seasons of interest
Fall planting means roots established before winter
Locally grown for New England conditions
Every plant in our Fall Sale is grown or hardened off right here in New Hampshire, so it's already acclimated to New England winters before it ever leaves our nursery.
We use your zone to recommend plants that survive your winters, and to estimate when your
order ships — we ship each plant when the weather where you live is right for it.

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!

Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
