For best results, plant daylilies in areas that receive six or more hours of full sun per day.
In soil that isn't constantly waterlogged.
Daylilies put on a big show when planted in masses, and are ideal for adding color along home foundations in front of shrub plantings, or to fill out a perennial garden.
Although daylilies will survive in less-than-ideal conditions, they will perform best if given full sun and a spot with well-drained, fertile soil.
Don't plant near trees and shrubs that will compete for moisture and nutrients.
To increase organic matter, add aged manure or compost to the soil before planting.
