Product Features:

Healthy, delicious, and easy to grow, the lovely daylilies commonly called ditch lilies, are not considered true lilies, but rather part of the Hemerocallis genus. Although each individual bloom opens in the morning and withers by evening, the plant continuously produces new buds, resulting in a season-long display of color in the garden. Daylilies are ideal for beginning gardeners and those looking to plant and quickly forget as these adaptable perennials require minimal care and can naturalize in many different settings.

Flowers
Daylilies typically bear trumpet-shaped flowers that range in size from petite 2-inch blooms to enormous 8-inch dinner-plate varieties. The flowers come in a wide array of colors, including yellow, orange, red, pink, purple, and white, and many varieties even have bi-colored or multi-colored blooms. Some daylilies are even fragrant, emitting a sweet perfume that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden.

Foliage
The foliage of daylilies is also quite attractive, featuring long, slender leaves that form a dense clump at the base of the plant. The leaves are generally green, but some varieties have variegated or striped leaves that add extra interest to the garden.

Growth Habit
Daylilies are clump-forming perennials that typically grow to a height of 1 to 3 feet. They spread by means of rhizomes, which are underground stems that produce new plants. This spreading habit makes daylilies an excellent choice for groundcovers or for planting in masses to create a dramatic effect.

Culture – How to Grow
Daylilies are very easy to grow and will thrive in most well-drained soils. They prefer full sun to partial shade and regular watering, but they are also tolerant of drought conditions. Daylilies are also relatively low-maintenance plants and require minimal fertilization.

After the plant has finished blooming, you can deadhead the spent flowers to encourage the production of new buds. You can also cut back the foliage in the fall or early spring to remove any dead or damaged leaves.

Uses
