I planted a Ruby Slippers daylily in 2014. Morning sun till maybe mid afternoon. Nice blooms, but really really stingy. I get one bloom at a time, wait for another one, repeat. Opened the database entry and noted many folks posting nice multiple bloomed plants. The only other daylilies I have are Stella and a no-name I got from my sister. Both of those are nonstop re blooming and increase their clumps regularly. Ruby does neither. I don't normally fertilize anything, my soil is pretty good. I also don't have a watering system but live in the Pacific NW so that is not usually a problem for me either. Other than patience, what else can I do with this sub-par plant? It blends well with a honeysuckle behind it, so is a keeper for that reason, but I'd sure be happier with a showier plant. Thanks.
I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned.
