Default daylilies

Well, no. I wouldn't transplant them till fall gets here, but YMMV. I lived on
Long Island for 37 years and it was zone 6b. I didn't transplant anything till
at least after Labor Day. At that time, you can amend the soil and add some
fertilizer (I like soft rock phosphate) in the holes where you're moving the
daylilies.

Daylilies really do prefer full sun; if yours are shaded, you
should move either them or the shading plants. However, you're
in luck, as now is the appropriate time to transplant them.

Now is not the appropriate time to transplant anything in Texas. It may

be okay
where you live, but not in the south or southwest. Unless death is the

goal.
