Two years ago, we planted daylillies which flowered beautifully.. Last yeay, only a few bloomed, but the leaves were very hardy..This year the leaves are very broad,and dark green, but no blooms...We have been told that they need more nitrogen, then another says more phosphate...We seem to be at an impasse. We have used Miracle Grow all purpose plant food which is 15% nitrogen, 30% phosphoros and 15% potash...HELP !!!

I hope this helps you trouble shoot. water.)
