Day lilies or Hemerocallis stem from a combination of two Greek words that mean “day” and “beautiful”. They are plants that require a lot of love and deserve your attention. Most Day-lilies come in titian or chrysal colors, but the variations possible are spectacular as well. There are some very affordable Day lilies plants for sale here. Now what can you do to multiply your growing children of the loam? Well, the Day lilies actually do most of the work for you already, in fact some Daylilies can begin to grow small plants on the stems of old flowers. If you happen to see that happen, then an infant Daylily needs your help, cut it and plant it elsewhere.
Although Day lilies can multiply in the manner mentioned, it is not the only way you can multiply these wonderful plants. So why not cut them out and make more when they grow old and reproduce? It isn’t as simple as that, but that is a rough summary of what you must do. The first step to take care of is observational in nature, take a look at the top of the stems that belong to the old flowers. Is there a formation of profiliferations? If there is, you have just found the little ones, and if they have roots extending from them you should cut the stalks about two to three inches below the new plants. Next you should remove about half of the foliage off of the new plants. Place those little nuggets of beauty into cups of water to allow the roots to grow just a tad bit more. Make sure to keep the water level even with the bottom of the plant. When they finally have healthy and matured roots, you can place them in pots filled with potting soil. Keep the soil moist and keep them in there for about a month before placing them into your garden.
One should divide lilies during the summer, well late summer to be precise. This is so you can watch those wonderful titian or chysal arms extend themselves, and bloom the following year. Grab your spade fork and get-a-forking. Dig around the clump, and by around that does mean all around, and about 6 to 8 inches deep. Clench the root clump and lift it out of the soil, then separate every plant that makes up that clump you pulled. Make sure to replant the individual plants with the same depth. Oh and before one forgets, after planting the individual plants in different locations, go ahead and remove half the foliage off of each one. The rest is as simple as pie, just let the sun shine gloriously. However, sunlight is not all that these little babies need as you will need to water them quite frequently, especially when you finish replanting them.
