Well, mine are right up against my side drive way, all blooms were spent, and the usually lovely foliage, is very tattered and sad looking. I just took out some small clumps that volunteered and left getting to my heatpump just a fantasy.
Polymerous,
I so enjoyed your advice and description. It was just hilarious, you should write a humorous gardening book, or start a blog! And I will take a good laugh over all else in this life, but everything you advised I actually really needed to know, except the swearing, I have that part down.
To divide clumps, I used a long old serrated kitchen knife, and sawed right through them. I imagine the screwdriver tip would be a little less violent. oops.
The pitch fork and I are both in danger of physical harm from bearing down on those bulbish roots with a good kick of the fork, hoping to slide thru some dirt, but finding a Pacific Northwest rock the size of a soft ball instead. It really rings my bell. .
Vickie, You must have lots of daylilies. I am amazed you can move them in May, but of course, you can. They are about the toughest plant I have ever had. Good to know!
Glad to have heard from you both!
