Re: daylilies

I cut mine back this year on the forth of July. The foliage came back
fresher and I do not have the die out that usually occurs in our long
summer. But the best treat of all- my daylillies are blooming again!! Not
all of them but more than half. I am thinking of dividing just these plants
so next year, hopefully, I will have many more repeaters. Has anyone else
experienced this?
