GROWING DAY LILIES IS EASY!
Q. How long will a day lily bloom?
A. Each cultivar is different, but the average is usually about 4 weeks. However, it is possible to have above-average performance from some cultivars that have been established for two years or more. Cultivars that are categorized as rebloomers provide another 3-4 weeks of bloom, especially if given adequate water regularly.
Q. How often should I water?
A. At least once a week. Too frequent watering after initial planting may be harmful.
Q. When is the best time to plant?
A. Spring.
Q. Should I fertilize?
A. Do not place fertilizer in the planting hole; instead, side dress in early spring with a balanced fertilizer.
Q. Where can I plant day lilies?
A. Day lilies prefer at least a half day of sun to a full day of sun. They fit well in borders, in front of shrubs, under trees, and as accent plants.
