Daylily toughness?




Would anyone care to comment on how much abuse daylilies can withstand?  I
received 25 small plants on Tuesday that someone had sent me from the
garden exchange.  Since they were bareroot, I needed to plant them right
away.  However, I am  in Kentucky (zone 6) where winter is still going on. 
Fortunately it is about 48 degrees and sunny today so I could get them in
the ground.  Some of them I put into pots to transplant at a more opportune
time.  But some of them I put directly into very wet ground.  I simply had
no other choice.

I know daylilies are supposed to be one of the toughest perennials on the
planet, but can they withstand this much torture?  This is my first
experience with them, and I want it to be a good one if possible.  I know
this was not the ideal time for this, but they were a gift from a very nice
person, and I hate to look a gift horse in the mouth.

Thanks for the help,
Amy Newkirk
