tetraploid daylily

Tetraploid Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Cinnamon Pleasure') require moderate watering during the growing season. During the first few weeks, water the plant every other day, and then reduce this to 2 times a week thereafter, provided the soil is kept moist. It is important to monitor the soil's moisture levels throughout the growing season; if the soil begins to dry out, water more frequently to keep the daylilies hydrated. During hot summer months, water more often, providing about 1 inch of water twice a week. In cooler months, reduce watering to every other week. In the winter, provide water to the plant only when the soil is dry.

Tetraploid daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Cinnamon Pleasure') thrive in full sun and need about 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. This species is best planted in a sunny spot that gets morning sun and is sheltered from strong winds. For optimal growth, avoid placing them in spots with afternoon shade, as this can provide too little light. Daylilies can also tolerate some light shade and even partial shade, but will not bloom as well in these conditions.

Tetraploid daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Cinnamon Pleasure') should be pruned twice a year. The first pruning should take place in the spring, after the plant blooms have finished and the foliage begins to turn yellow. It is important that the foliage is pruned before the end of the season because it will help maintain the plant's health and vigor. Pruning should consist of removing dead or damaged foliage, as well as any foliage that has become too long. The second pruning should take place in the fall, just before the plant goes dormant for the winter. This pruning should be slightly more thorough, as this will help to promote healthy and vigorous growth the following spring. Pruning should consist of removing any dead or damaged foliage, as well as any foliage that has become too long or too lanky. Additionally, any flowers or buds should be removed, as they will not bloom the following year. Overall, pruning should be kept to a minimum for tetraploid daylilies. Since the plants are slow to grow and require care and attention, the goal is to encourage growth, but not to damage the plant in the process. Proper pruning each season not only helps to maintain the health of the plant, but also keeps them looking their best.
