If the DL is dead, there's nothing that will help, but to see if it's dead
or
not, put the pot into something that can hold water in it and soak the
pot, if
the DL is still alive, in a week or two you might see some growth, if not
it's
history.

As for the Iris, it's not a good idea to plant them to close to any plant,
they
are big time feeders and need room to spread out too.

Hi,
I have just found his newsgroup and I have some newbie questions:

1. How do I bring back a dried out, brown, potted day lily?
It's in a plastic pot and I would like to put it with my other two day
lilies that are in my small garden plot in front of my front window.

2. I have just bought some iris rhizomes and would like to plant them
next
to the day lilies. What is the best way to plant them?

3. Got some semi-wilted Japanese blood grass in small 3" pots. They
were
shipped to me and arrived a bit dried out. I've let them rest a bit
after
unpacking and have since watered them. I want to put them into a pot
and
out in the front garden plot until I decide exactly where they're going
to
go. Will this hurt them?

4. I am also wondering if seeds (morning glory, red sunflower, and a few
wildflower seeds) will germinate after being kept in an envelope for
about 2
years?

BTW my house is situated front facing north west and back south east (I
think) and I have one iris, a deep rust colored one, which was planted
years
ago and has both naturalised and self seeded to another location (the
plot
in front of the front window), and a gorgeous huge red amaryllis which
started out sprouting in the garage and had ended up naturalised in the
front garden plot as 6 plants. I usually let the grass grow up around
the
iris plants, day lilies, and amaryllis plants (this has saved them from
freezing more than once and kept them from drying out as well.
I live in south east Texas on the gulf coast.

Any advice or help is greatly appreciated I am more of a throw it in
the
ground and leave it alone gardener since I am disabled and can't do a
lot of
puttering.
