DAYLILIES (Hemerocallis)

Daylilies are durable, easy to grow plants that need at least 4 hours of direct sun to bloom well.  Daylilies are drought tolerant, but will do best in well drained fertile soils.  Everblooming varieties will rebloom better if the spent flower scapes (stems) are removed after they have finished flowering.  The plants can be cut down to the ground in fall after the foliage has frozen, or the dead foliage can be left until spring when it can simply be pulled away from the crown.  Semi-evergreen varieties may not fully die down, but have some foliage that remains green all winter.  Dormant varieties have foliage that will fully die down in the winter.
