Yay, found it. I knew I had a newbie advice thread here somewhere!

So next door neighbor has offered me a division of her daylily that she says she bought because the flower is very dark. I have not seen the bloom nor questioned her more about it, but, yay, daylily, right?

So I went to check it out, it has four bloomscapes on it -- going to wait until after bloom and probably until cooler weather before I dig up any.

My question is to do with sun and shade. This plant is in shade much of the day. Right now, midday, it's getting some sun, and I expect for the afternoon it will be in some dappled light, but not a lot of sun! My yard is almost all full sun. I can put it in a container in a shadier area but I don't want to grow it there.

If I wait until cooler weather, pot it up for overwintering, is it likely to be able to adjust to a spot in full or nearly full sun, come spring next year?
