Re: Daylily toughness?


Amy,

Daylilies are sort of like hostas.  They can both withstand a huge amount of
abuse/neglect.  For example, I dug up a number of clumps of daylilies
several months ago because of a septic tank problem.  My son helped and put
the daylilies somewhere.  The other day I was out at my compost heap and
there on the pile were the daylilies!  They had all begun to sprout.

I have had similar experiences with hostas.  Dug them up, intending to
transplant them and for whatever reason, did not.  Not to fear--they came
through the winter unscathed.  And that was not a mild one like we are
having now.

Don't fret, Amy.  They will be just fine!
