RASPBERRY SUEDE

Aptly named, the unusually smooth, velvety texture of this daylily is very much like suede. The large 5" flowers are a unique shade of rich raspberry red like raspberry syrup and they are quite sunfast for such a dark color. They display a pie crust edge, diamond-dusted petals, and a small chartreuse throat.

Awesome flower, but currently unavailable. A very nice alternate, and similar look is Jungle Beauty. Added bonus is that Jungle Beauty is a less expensive flower and a more prolific grower.
