I agree with Maurice. When a daylily has clumped up with a majority of mature fans and is no longer blooming as well as it did previously I would normally divide it. Remember though, sometimes a daylily can have a bad year. I have some medium clumps (8 -10 mixed sized fans) that really shouldn't need dividing yet that were poor performers this year. Could have been the hard winter, dry spring, ... Shrug!
