How to Plant and Care for Daylilies

Planting daylilies is relatively easy. Follow these steps to ensure your daylilies thrive in your garden:

1. Choose a location with well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade.

2. Dig a hole that is wide and deep enough to accommodate the roots of the daylily plant.

3. Place the daylily plant in the hole, making sure the crown is level with or slightly above the soil surface.

4. Backfill the hole with soil and gently firm it around the plant.

5. Water the plant thoroughly after planting, and continue to water regularly until established.

6. Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and suppress weed growth.

7. Fertilize the daylilies in early spring and again after they finish blooming.

8. Deadhead the flowers as they fade to encourage continuous blooming and prevent seed production.

9. Divide the daylilies every 3-4 years to maintain their vigor and prevent overcrowding.
