watering

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Hollywood') should be watered 1-2 times per week, depending on the weather. In hot and dry conditions, it is important to water your plant more frequently. It is best to wait until the soil is dry to the touch before watering and to water deeply to fully saturate the root zone. Soak the soil until water runs out of the holes at the bottom of the pot and then allow it to dry out before rewatering. If the foliage begins to appear wilted, it is an indication that the plant requires more water.

sunlight

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Hollywood') enjoys full to partial sun. Ideally, it should receive 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight each day. However, during the hottest days of summer, it is best to provide some afternoon shade to protect the flowers from burning. Morning sun with dappled shade during the later part of the day is also a good option.

pruning

Daylilies should be pruned in early spring. For Hemerocallis 'Hollywood', it will depend on the age and size of the plant to determine the amount of pruning needed. If the daylily is young, you can prune off the old foliage and flower stems down to the soil line. If it is established, you can prune up to 1-third of the old foliage. This will help stimulate new growth and encourage blooms.
