Grandchildren are my greatest joy.

I ordered twice from Schriener's this late summer. I ordered by variety and not by number of divisions. 'I'm not certain you could do that. Every thing they sent had a least 2 large healthy divisions, some as many as 7 which I planted together. At my age I want to see clumps as soon as possible......

Just got say say I didn't stick to my rule either this year.

I have some coming from zone 8 in California I hope they get here soon so they have time to settle in & I think I will mulch those also.
Good luck

I have planted daylilies as late as November around here with success.

How did you do that?? I have some that are coming extremely late this season, and I'm worried to death about planting them out so late!

Terry some things take priority that late in the year. I didn't plan it that way. You can only do so much when you are working full time.
