Big Time Happy Daylilys Are Not Producing Buds To Bloom?

Question

Had a hot summer and I was ill and did not give them as much care as I would usually. I did prune them back in the fall. Thought of dividing them this spring but did not. What can I di to get them on cycle for next year as I realize probably too late for this year!

Answer 1

Daylilies don't need a lot of care so yours should be fine. If you have had them for years and they are overcrowded and that is why the blooming is in a lull, you can divide them this fall but be sure they have 6 to 8 weeks before cold weather sets in so they can get established. Here is how:
