Some of my daylilies hardly bloomed or didn't bloom at all. Any one else
have this problem? I don't know if it was because of the wet summer that we have been having or because some of the daylilies are being shaded out by other plants that have just grown so BIG. Maybe it's time to transplant to more sunny spots? Thanks Bebra NE PA zone 6b |

Maybe they need fertilizer?

Most need lots of sun for good blooms.

There is also a tendency for daylilies to sort of die down in the center (of a clump, not individual plants) as they expand at the edges. Digging up, dividing and transplanting is beneficial. |

Hi!
I had the same problem with my daylilies last year, then i remember the garden centre where i purchased them said to separate them, because they will spread, and do need plenty of sun. This year i transplanted some of them, and they are thriving inspite of all this rainy weather we too, have been having. Hope this helps! Good-Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!! peppergirl Please feel free to check out my website. Click on below. http://hotcuisine.esmartweb.com/ "Barbara Yanus" wrote in message ...

Well they are only about 3-4 years old. I thought that was too soon to
seperate them. My most beautiful one, Purple Mt Majesty is very sparce. It doesn't have many leaves at all. I would be afraid to seperate that one. But that is on that has been shaded by a Meadow Rue, that has gtown so BIG...maybe I should just transplant to a sunnier spot? thanks Bebra NE PA zone 6b "Peppergirl" wrote in message ... Hi!

Could be, I have never fertilized them. They are about three or four years
old. Is it too late in the season to fertilize? thanks Barbara NE PA zone 6b "Cereoid-UR12-" wrote in message .com... Maybe they need fertilizer? Barbara Yanus wrote in message ...

The fall is a good time to transplant?

Since they die down in winter (here), it seems logical that transplanting as the foliage is dying down (but not so gone that you can't find 'em) would be a good idea. Don't take my word for it. I'm sure there's lots of expert advice available. |

However, you're in luck, as now is the appropriate time to transplant them.

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.
