watering
This particular species of daylily requires moderate watering throughout the summer, approximately 1 inch of water per week. This plant can withstand both short and long periods of drought, but during the hottest summer months, it would benefit from being watered more frequently - perhaps twice a week. Check the soil moisture before you water, as too much water can be just as detrimental to some plants as too little. Daylily 'Pawn of Prophecy' should not be watered during winter and cold climates, unless the plant and soil are totally dry and the temperature remains above freezing.
sunlight
Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Pawn of Prophecy') do best with full sun exposure for 6-8 hours each day. They can tolerate some shade and will still bloom, but with less than 6 hours of sunlight per day, their blooms might be smaller and fewer. Additionally, daylilies prefer not to get too hot. As such, it is best to provide some dappled shade during the hottest parts of the day and to keep them well watered.
pruning
Daylily 'Pawn of Prophecy' should be pruned twice a year to encourage healthy growth. In early spring (February or March), before new growth appears, lightly trim off the dead foliage from the previous season at ground level. Then after the flowers fade in late summer (August or September), cut back the foliage by 1-third to 1-half. Pruning removes spent flowers and foliage, and encourages new growth and blooms for the coming season.
