LOCATION, PLANTING AND CARE OF 
DAYLILIES 
As previously stated Daylilies can be planted 
anywhere and thrive successfully with practically 
no care at all. 
I have seen Daylilies growing 
where weeds didn't have a chance 
to grow, however, these Daylilies con- 
tinue to flower. Naturally they didn't 
grow as rapidly nor were the size of 
flowers up to standard. 
Any location, whether exposed to full sun or 
part shade, will grow Daylilies satisfactorily. Soil 
can either be acid or alkaline, sandy loam or 
clay. 
Daylilies can be planted any time from March 
until November. The plants are very rugged, can 
stand any amount of neglect and are also ex- 
tremely hardy. They are like Peonies, you have 
very few flowers the first year, however once 
established, “they will bloom profusely, many 
plants producing hundreds of flowers per season. 
These Lilies can remain in the same location for 
years. 
Daylilies respond to feeding of rotted cow ma- 
nure, bone meal is also excellent. They are sur- 
prisingly free from diseases and insect pests. 
The Daylily is by far the most conventional 
plant for your garden, regardless of your loca- 
tion; whether they are planted where the tem- 
perature goes to 40 degrees below or one of the 
hottest, driest locations in our country, or along 
your pool, brook or lake, these plants will lav- 
ishly produce flowers in abundance. If proper 
varieties are selected, you will have Daylily 
blooms from May until frost. 
Daylilies can also be used as cut flowers. One 
spray will flower for a week, new flowers open- 
ing daily. They can be arranged handsomely 
with other perennials. 
They also help to make up stunning flower - 
gardens. Plant 3 or 5 in groups between your 
Phlox, Delphiniums, Peonies, etc. Are also excep- 
tionally outstanding in border plantings for they 
are so stately. 
Daylilies can also be filled in amongst your 
shrubbery, they indeed will dress up any foun- 
dation planting. Many individuals are making a 
hobby collecting Daylilies. With today’s newer 
varieties it definitely will give you plenty of 
pleasure to assemble our many new colors in 
Ophir your enchanting garden.
