daylily

Daylilies can generally tolerate periods of drought, and do best when watered on a regular basis. For the Daylily "Baltimore Oriole", water the soil around the plants regularly. During dry periods, give them 1-2 inches of water each week. However, avoid over-watering, as this can result in rot or fungal diseases developing in the root system. Water in the early morning to give the foliage time to dry before nightfall, and always water around the plant and not onto the leaves or flower buds.

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Baltimore Oriole') plants require at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day for optimal growth and flowering. They can tolerate partial sun, but they should not be shaded for extended periods throughout the day. Sunlight during the morning and afternoon hours is ideal, with some light shade in the middle of the day when temperatures are highest. This plant prefers to receive direct sunlight for a minimum of 4 to 6 hours, ideally between the hours of 10am and 4pm.

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Baltimore Oriole') should be pruned in early spring, just before new growth begins. This will ensure that all dead foliage and stems are removed, and that the plant will have plenty of time to produce new foliage for the upcoming growing season. Pruning your Daylily 'Baltimore Oriole' involves removing the old foliage from last year down to 1 or 2 sets of leaves at the crown of the plant. This will remove the oldest, possibly damaged foliage, while keeping the plant's energy focused on growing new, healthy foliage. When pruning the Daylily 'Baltimore Oriole', always make sure to use sharp, sanitized pruning tools to avoid introducing any diseases or pests into the plant.
