How Do You Grow Daylilies In Mulch?
Dylilies are very aptly named. Although they are not really in the lily family (they only look like them), they do bloom only in daytime. Daylilies come in all colors and in sizes that range from 8 inches to 10 feet in height. And, like all plants that originate from bulbs, they multiply. Depending on the variety, you can divide each plant into as many as four plants every few years. Check with your local garden center to see if you need to mix in any fertilizer in order to get the right PH balance. The same type of soil in one area can need a different fertilizer than similar soil in another area. Pick the right type of mulch for your daylilies. Choose mulch that is organic in nature. There are several natural choices that not only keep weeds at bay, but help keep moisture in the soil as well. This includes wood chips, shredded bark, clean straw, pine needles and marsh hay. Do not use non-porous materials such as stone. They may look nice, but they are not good for the daylilies. Plan
