RE: Need help !!!!!1


Donna:  I'd soak 'em for a few hours, then lay then on top of the ground
fairly close together in the shade and pour leaf mold or compost or sand or
something like that on the roots, and hand water every few days.  I've done
that, and it works just fine.  This will get them started getting used to
your climate.  It would also be fine to pot them up, and leave then outside.
I'm a little dubious about the fridge or the basement -- daylilies are
tough, but you'd then have to transition them to your climate late in the
season which could be risky.

to the list

I recieved and order of drawf daylilies from Springhill today ...  I
need advice on what to do with them for awhile.    it is so dry here,
I dare say that you couldn't get a shovel in the ground,  I might try a
pick axe,  but even doubt that.
how do I keep them for another couple of week (in hopes that it will
rain enough to soften the ground)   can I put them in the fridge,  the
basement,  plant them in a pots

need some input on this matter   soon
