watering

Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Zada Mae') need to be watered once per week, depending on the temperature and range of humidity. Generally, during the summer, water your daylilies deeply once per week, if it has not rained. For most climates, it is helpful to water daylilies near the end of the day, as opposed to during the day. During the winter, water them when the soil is dry. In all cases, ensure that the soil is consistently moist, but never soggy or wet. If you notice that the soil is drying out quickly in between watering, the soil may need to be amended with compost or other organic matter.

sunlight

Daylilies (Hemerocallis 'Zada Mae') need at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight each day. This is best achieved by providing the plant with at least 4-6 hours of morning sun each day. If intense afternoon sun is present, then fewer hours of sun may be planning to aviod damage from the intense heat. It is also important to provide daylilies with a break from sun in the hottest part of the day and if possible provide afternoon or dappled shade.

pruning

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Zada Mae') is a beautiful plant species that blooms in late summers. Pruning daylilies is essential for optimal growth and will promote healthy flowers and foliage. It is best to prune daylilies in the early springtime, just as new growth appears. Be sure to remove any dead or damaged stems, as well as any diseased or discolored foliage. In addition, trim off any spent flowers, and any stems that are growing in an awkward direction. If you want to control the size of the plant, you can also lightly prune the top of the stem. The total amount of pruning on a daylily should not exceed 50% of the total stems and foliage, so prune lightly to make sure you do not compromise the health of your plant.
