Karin, You might do well to see about hiring a teenager to help you do the heavy stuff, such as digging or using the tiller(if you need) or just hauling soil and plants around the yard. You might ask around at a local nursery or new neighbors??? If time is against you getting this done before winter you might consider building a big berm, using a truck load of soil or compost and just heeling in your pots or plants. then you could start next spring putting everything where it needs to be. I don't know how bad cold it gets at your home, but daylilies put into a big mound of soil(I'd lay them over, not upright and not completely on their side), and then cover all of the lowerr part of the pot with the mulch or soil. I just really believe they would do fine. Ok, all you folks, speak up if this isn't a good idea. I certainly don't want to suggest something bad.
If you have big shrubs to plant, that would be where I would start, and with that you will need help. All of this is just ideas. Maybe some of the others will come up more. Mona
