Daylilies are invaluable for the summer gar- 
den. By choosing both early and late varieties 
one can have bloom from May until frost. 
They are not particular about soil but repay 
one for plenty of moisture and nourishment, 
though they are very drouth desistant. While they 
will grow in shade they need sun part of the day 
to produce bloom and do even better in full sun. 
They do not require frequent division so space 
them from 2-3 feet apart to permit formation of 
good clumps. They are quite hardy when estab- 
lished but should have some protection the first 
winter. The evergreen kinds do not remain ever- 
green in northern sections and for best results 
should be spring planted. Dormant kinds may be 
planted in either spring or fall. Mix some well 
rotted manure in the holes when planting or com- 
post with a handful of balanced fertilizer.
