daylily

Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Little Audrey') should receive 1-1.5 inches of water a week, preferably in the morning. You can provide this water through rainfall, a hose, or a sprinkler. If you are relying on rainfall, gauge it carefully as too much water can cause root rot. During the summer, water more frequently, using the 1-1.5 inches of water as an average. They can also benefit from a little water on warmer winter days. Overall, daylilies should be kept moist, but not saturated.

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Little Audrey') needs full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day. This species prefers to be in direct sunlight mid-morning to mid-afternoon when the sunlight is at its brightest. With too much shade, the plant may develop fewer and lighter colored flowers. Too much shade also may cause the leaves to look lank and weak, and may even contribute to diseases in the foliage.

Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Little Audrey') should be pruned in late spring after all the blooms are spent. It is recommended to trim off any dead, damaged, or diseased foliage first, then to remove any remaining spent blooms. For further shaping, it is advised to do no more than ¼ of the foliage at 1 time. Pruning too much at once will result in fewer flowers for flower production in subsequent years. It is also important to make sure not to damage the crown of the plant while pruning, which could cause the death of the plant.
