gardenglory said:Most daylilies you have to cut back at some point in the year anyway, so if you have a dormant you like, Va. seems a perfect place for them. I personally like the dormants, even here in FL. They have such nice foliage in the spring. Lotus Position is a great example of that. Not to say, as mentioned above, sometimes they just dwindle a bit each year, I find that true no matter what they are. Some I just cant seem to keep going no matter what I do.


Thanks Pam, I do have plenty and I will see what happens. I was concerned that they would not get the proper cold spell and I have read about them fizzling out after a few years. Glad to hear you have had good success, how long do your dormants last? What is the oldest one you have?
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Mat.6:28-29
