daylily

When it comes to watering Daylilies, the most important thing to remember is to keep the soil moist, but not wet. Water the plants deeply, twice a week during active growing season. During hot, dry weather, the plants may need to be watered every other day. In winter months, reduce watering to once every 2-3 weeks, or when the soil is dry to the touch. To avoid overwatering, make sure you water directly on the soil and not on the foliage.

Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Lady Emily' LOVELY LADY) love full sun in order to thrive, and prefer a minimum of 8 hours of direct, unfiltered sunlight each day. If grown in shadier conditions, the flowers will be dramatically affected, resulting in limited bloom and fewer growths. To ensure your daylilies bloom to their fullest potential, plant them in an area of the garden that gets abundant, direct sunlight for most of the day throughout the growing season.

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Lady Emily' LOVELY LADY) should be pruned in late spring to early summer once the primary flowering period is finished. This helps maintain and promote vigorous new growth, and ensures that the plants look their best when in bloom. To prune, simply cut the flower stalks down to just above the emerging basal leaves. If you wish, you can also tidy up the foliage by removing any dead or damaged leaves. Depending on the variety, daylilies may require pruning once or twice a year if the plants are kept vigorously.
