Daylily planting environment

Daylily planting environment

Daylilies grow strongly, have strong adaptability and are able to withstand cold. It can grow in dry, humid and poor soil, but its growth is poor and the flowers are small and few.

If there is drought during the growing period, appropriate irrigation should be carried out, and attention should be paid to drainage during rainy periods.

Plant in holes before germination in early spring, apply permanent base fertilizer first, cover with a thin layer of soil, and then plant the roots. The spacing between rows and plants should be about 30-40 cm. Water thoroughly once after planting, and apply fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season.

Before winter, it is necessary to apply decomposed organic fertilizer. It is hardly managed as a ground cover plant.

Time of choice

The cultivation time for daylilies is mostly chosen in March in early spring, before budding. It is best planted in well-drained, deep, fertile, organic soil.

Water and fertilizer management

Water and fertilizer management is relatively simple. Due to the long flowering period, in addition to applying sufficient base fertilizer during planting, top dressing is required two or three times before flowering and during flowering. Mainly supplement with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, you can also spray 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate to promote flower enlargement and extend the flowering period. At the same time, watering should be combined to promote more branches and early budding.
