Re: [SG] Daylilies


Dear Deb;

I'm very new to daylilies also but have learned a few things from diehard
hemoholics at the Long Island Daylily Society. If you divide them to less
than 2 plants together, they take longer to establish and have less
flowers. Try planting the little clump you have intact. I've heard that a
two fan plant can double or triple in one growing season if its happy.
Manure is its best friend - Some people I know plant in straight manure!

They prefer as much sun as you can give it 4-6 hrs I've heard is
best,except for darker colors which don't do as well with very strong
sun. In shade you'll get more grassy foliage than flowers. You could try
this web site for more info and maybe even a picture:
