- Daylilies area must have perennial for every sun garden. These hardy perennials flourish in zones 4-9, are extremely low maintenance, produce gorgeous flowers for weeks on end, are virtually pest free, and seem to be indestructible. What's not to love?! Join me as I give you a tutorial on the basics of growing daylilies and share some of my most favorite ones with you.

Hi there Jenny: I enjoying seeing all the beautiful daylilies in your garden that are striking! I have an entire row randomly placed in the front of the house and you are so right,they have been great performers. Some are still ready to open with their vibrant colors! Wow, thanks for showing all of yours that have been growing for years!
I bought my first hybrid daylilies (other than the old-fashioned ditch lily) about 15 years ago at a plant-fair. The booth, called the Daylily Society, had so many beautiful and unique varieties that I purchased 6 different ones. Well, my dear friend offered to help me plant, because all together, I picked up 40 plus plants that day. To make a long story short, the plants I had planted took off and were doing well, but the ones he had planted were turning yellow and seemed to be dying. I finally dug up one of the plants and discovered that he had planted (the 3 little daylily starts) in the plastic bag, which were secured together with a rubber-band. Needless to say, I never accepted his offer to help me plant again. Lol! I still have those six different hybrid daylilies! ~Margie
OH MY!!! Well I sure am glad that you investigated in to why they were suffering! And as we say here in the South, bless his heart!
@@GardeningwithCreekside That's so true, his heart was in the right place, but, bless his heart, he didn't have a clue as to what he was doing! 💕 Lol!
Great story about the plastic bag! Oh my!
Oohhh that Siloam Peony display is got me on the hunt. Fingers crossed I’m able to find her. Thanks Jenny😊
vutsup1 you’re so welcome! Happy gardening (and hunting)!
Day lillies are magnificent! I divide mine almost every year and they are my mommas- over 25 years old.
Don't you love how plants can hold memories of loved ones?
I agree, every garden should have daylilies 😍 Good morning from subtropical Durban, South Africa 🙋🏽♀️🧚🏼♀️
Good morning!!! I’m so happy to hear that the Daylily love extends to South Africa ♥️. Happy gardening!
I don't mind them (not a huge fan) but I wish people would vary the variety rather than planting a thousand of the same variety. Plus they're only in bloom for a couple of weeks (and then their foliage wilts down into mush, not unlike a hosta) so if I planted them, I'd only do a grouping of three to five, here and there.
Jake Jones I have about 20 different varieties all planted in a merry mix 😃
@@Bamboo4U2 not if you get the Proven Winners reblooming varieties. ;) In bloom for 3 weeks and will rebloom again for another 2-3.
@@blackwec56 interesting. Thanks.
Thank You ,
After fails , and Blessings too .
It's lovely to see smiles on a promise come true 🤗
Daylilies are a great garden plant. Your home is gorgeous by the way.
Mary .Klam thanks so much!
You’ve given me a new appreciation for day lilies! Here in central California the yellow one is EVERYWHERE so I told hubby when we were landscaping… NO daylilies. That was before I knew they came in all these gorgeous colors! And now I’m looking for wherever I can squeeze a few! Haha
This is a the first video I found and watch of your channel. It's my second time watching it now. I sow it first time last summer when I was searching info on daylillies. Now a little under a year later I have around 10 different types of daylillies in my garden and I LOVE them ☺️
That's fantastic!!!!
I love day lilies. My momma calls them ditch lilies because they’ll grow anywhere. 😀
Yes! They are called that here too, and every time I see them growing wild in ditches along the road I am reminded why they have that nickname. Happy gardening!
Haha.. so true
I love them when I see them out in the pastures. I just bought a house (my last hurrah, I'm old) and I'm going to plant tons of the common ditch lilies. Beautiful!
I love them because they are my favorite color, they are long blooming throughout the spring and summer
The orange ones grow like crazy in the ditches here in WV.
We call them Ditch Lilly’s.
I have dug up & transplanted some in my yard about 10 years ago , they still come up !
So they are pretty & Free !! 🧡🧡🧡
And yet another reason to LOVE daylilies!
Getting ready to go our local Day lily farm. Best way to shop for day lilies in my opinion as you can see them in bloom. I have the ruby spiders, one of my favorites along with "Great American Chief". Which is my absolute fave. Day lilies are one of my favorite flowers, so many different varieties. I can’t get enough. Lol
Oh I love that! I would probably come home with at least one of everything 🤦🏻♀️
I'm so glad you like daylilies. So many gardeners don't use them.
I have daylilies also! That hedge of your is awesome!
Marilyn Baldwin thank you so much! I don’t think I could have imagined how massive & gorgeous they were going to turn out to be when we planted them.
About the daylillys.the Siloam daylillys were hybridized by The late Pauline Henry of Siloam Springs,Ar.I have a few of them.I have the one you showed absolutely gorgeous.I had the privilege of meeting her and touring her yard.I absolutely love your videos because it is hot and humid here so is so nice to see what survives in these conditions .Your beds are just beautiful and I love your enthusiasm.
Thank you so much for sharing your story! ♥️
Great video from your favorite nephew.
Thanks bud!
@@GardeningwithCreekside Aw!
I used to have a HUGE day-lily garden years ago and planted many varieties that bloom a little different from others to extend the bloom season. Now, I have 2 small DL gardens. I deadhead the blooms and toss them into the yard before mowing. Planning on another DL garden around a tree, but thats a spring '21 project. I'll surround them with black eyed susans, Echinacea and others like it so there are flowers all season.
Sounds beautiful!
Daylilies are one of my favorites. I bought most of mine from Oakes Daylilies before Proven Winners started propagating them.
They are a fantastic plant!
Good morning all! I planted about 15 mixed varieties last year, which I purchased for $1 each from a Big Box store because they were dying and in a dreadful state. I planted them along the side of our house where they get full sun all day. Then this year, I see Orange Daylillies growing on the other side of our house where my neighbors property meets ours. As I'm new to gardening, I did not know that they were so prolific.... Now I see them everywhere I go! Lol 🤣. Thanks Jenny again for such a great video!
Oh how fun is that?! Welcome to the world of gardening❣️
Jenny, I love daylilies & have a few in my garden that were given to me by friends. I notice there were other flowers in front of your lilies, do you mind sharing what's in that bed?My Daughter is just getting around this year to landscaping her yard at there new home & IT IS MINDBOGGLING …LOL I can see lots & lots of daylilies in her future ...LOL Enjoy all your videos. You are my morning cup of coffee.
You're so king, thank you! I do have a little planting in this section in front of the daylilies ~ in the center is a perennial red hibiscus surounded by Uptick Coreopsis Gold & Bronze, and this year I added Proven Winners Superbena Whiteout between the coreopsis. Tell your daughter to try to enjoy the process and to remember that no gardening project has to be permanent!
When it comes to daylilies there are 2 types of people - those who would like to plant daylilies in there yard, and those desperate to give you some of the daylilies that are overtaking their yard. The difference between these two types of people? About 4 years😁 Kidding aside (though not entirely), I was trying to find something pretty to grow along the edge of the lake behind my house - 6+ hours of sun a day and heavily rooted, constantly wet soil that does become temporarily submerged during any hard rain. Not always great conditions but the daylilies have THRIVED. They are lovely to look at and extremely hardy. Every season they do try to stray from their designated area but an hour a year of pulling those out and transplanting/disposing is the only effort required.
Sooooo many color combos on these things. I want all of them👍🏿
Such enthusiasm!! I’m so excited for spring to arrive, just divided some liriope to fill in other gaps in the garden and waiting for stella de pro daylily to arrive!
Love the attempt lol made me smile. Nosferatu = NOSE-fur-ah-too
Glad I made you smile! Evidently it’s a vampire reference? And since I did a horrible job pronouncing the name I guess it’s clear that I don’t like vampire/scary storylines 😉
@@GardeningwithCreekside haha neither do I. So I'm not sure how I knew that it was vampire-related and how to pronounce it... Just one of those useless pieces of information I possess 😂
I love daylilies💕🌸 So many were blooming in my garden this year. My favorites are the miniature flowers.
I love the lillies they are so beautiful.
sunshine flowers thank you so much! I sure do enjoy seeing them outside my windows!
Most day lily growers are more than happy to share. I gladly do!
The gardening community is a very generous bunch ♥️
Hi Jenny. Please give us a tour on all your Daylillies. I love them & have only two varieties in my yard. Would love to get more colors. They are absolutely easy peesy to grow. I’ve also grown them in containers with no problems.
Love your channel ! Southern gardening can be so difficult with our extreme weather
We live on the Wind River and I just planted 15 of the very deep red "Bogeyman" variety spilling down the river bank. Can't wait to see how they look next spring. We have a deer issue here, but so far - after 2 bites - they have left them alone. Keeping my fingers crossed.
zone 9b Australia here: severe daylily envy! we can only count on one hand how many varieties we can get here. I moved and divided one in half yesterday mid Winter, you are right they are tough.
Margaret Michelsen feel free to live vicariously through our videos! That is so much for watching❣️
Have you checked www.daylily.com.au/
Daylilies are my favorite flowers and I have many varieties and a tattoo to boot . I bought a Ruby Spider last year and it started to flower 2 days ago on July 3rd here in Western Massachusetts, I also have the Siloam one
So cool! They are a fantastic plant for sure!
So Beautiful...Almost as Beautiful as you Jenny!❤🌹
Aww, stop it! You're going to make me blush!
When dividing daylilies the best way is to tease apart the individual fans until you have 2 to 4 of them in each clump. If you can avoid chopping up a clump you will get many more plants and reduce rot risk. Each division or fan needs to have crown tissue in it. Daylilies will not grow back just from the roots, not even the nodular pieces. I soak large clumps in a bucket before dividing and only occasionally need to resort to a knife or screwdriver to pry them apart. I currently have 400 to 500 daylily plants of many different varieties. A good site to go to to find daylily growers is Charlotte's Daylily Diary. It is a hub for daylily related information. The American Daylily Society also has a free data base you can use to find out more about any of the over 80000 cultivars currently registered.
Great info!
Gorgeous!! I had to give up growing them because the deer love them. I tried everything to keep them away. Thank you for sharing. Love that peony variety...makes me want to try again.🌷❤
Have you ever eaten one? They're edible for humans & taste like sweet lettuce. It's no wonder the deer like them!
You are so welcome!
I got some 2 daylily plants on clearance at walmart and now a i want to get more after watching the video haha
I'm in Connecticut, my front yard don't get much sun light until early afternoon to sunset. The base of these flowers are getting bigger and bigger every year. You're right now they lean a bit because not enough of direct sunlight.
Great choices Jenny I’ll live in Alabama so I know all about the hot hot weather and the humidity sometimes it seems you can slice it with a knife however we love our weather here we think it’s the best .
You have a lovely home.💞
Thank you! 😊
Hi Jenny, love day lilies. Happy 4th July to you 🎉🎉🎉 Your garden is just gorgeous and I love your hedge of lilies. Our gardens in England are so much smaller so can’t have a row that large unfortunately 😁 but I do have a few clumps so great to hear this advice. Love your videos and always look forward to watching them all.
Thank you so much!
I just got some Orange Smoothie PW day lilies recently they are so pretty
Tess Hackett that one is GORGEOUS! Of course aren’t they all? 😉
Great job. Thanks!!!
I have day lilies but the deer eat the flowers every summer. Enjoy your channel.
Most day lilies do very well in my zone 3 garden.
That’s fantastic! Happy gardening!
She is beautiful 😍
Just subscribed I to live in NC. Looking forward to more videos.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great video!! 🧡💜🧡💜🧡
Thank you 🤗
I have wanted salome peony display for 2 years.. Nobody has it.. Last year there was some that were marked salome at a local nursery, and I was over the moon.. I got some for me and my mom.. WE both were on pins and needles to see it bloom. In 3 days I got my first bloom and was shocked and disappointed that it was red and yellow.. might have been that ruby star you showed. The color was pretty but not what I wanted in my soft colored part of my garden I called the nursery and thankfully they gave our money back.. But to this day I havent been able to get my hands on that beautiful daylily
I can certainly understand your frustration! We haven’t been able to buy any of the root stock for years, but we are scheduled to have it this upcoming spring. It is such a beautiful & unique bloom 💛
Hi Jenny, I'm a new subscriber. Found your channel recently and I love it! Everything you show is so beautiful! I live in Little Rock Arkansas, but grew up in North Mississippi. I have to admit, Listening to you talk makes me homesick. ☺
Sandi Lunders hopefully I am able to bring back some fond memories! Thanks so much for watching and happy gardening ❣️
@@GardeningwithCreekside ❤
Have you heard of Wild Horses ? I seen a photo and fell in love . No other info tho.
Nosferatu is the name of a vampire.
It's also the name of an exquisite daylily.
Gonna keep that one in mind.
Day lillies are my favorite. I've been wanting a Siloam all season but cant find any so hopefully I can order some in the fall.
They are fantastic! We just placed our large perennial order for this Fall and unfortunately we can’t get it until this time next year 😳. Clearly there has been a run on Siloam Peony Display!
Day lilies are edible to boot! 👍🏼
I would recommend hybrid daylilies to people,pure species are not enough for garden anymore.They grow well but most may consider them as agressive and boring.Hybrid daylilies availible in different colors,sizes,flower shapes and etc. some could even rebloom
I see Day Lillies as weeds🤣 pretty and tolerable. Tasha Tudor hated them and I agree!
Well she may not have liked them but she did use them in the landscape 😀
@@GardeningwithCreekside
I agree. Removed most of them but I have a small bed next to my flagstone patio.
Beautiful, if contained and enjoyed.
Jenny please show us the day lilies a couple weeks after their glory and how to clean up and maintain the bed. I think they are most magnificent in mass plantings but find that the grouping looks very sad afterwards.The leaves turn yellow and I then notice leaf miners.
Yeah, it's a big, ugly pile of mush. They look terrible after they're done blooming.
Leaf miners wreck mine too. I cut them back to the ground when they are done blooming. They come up with fresh leaves then.
Will do!! Just curious as to where you live? For us, our daylily foliage won't start to turn yellow until the Fall and then yes it does get sad looking. For me I don't mind it as it signals the end of one season and the beginning of another. I've given up on the idea of my gardens looking "perfect" a long time ago because it is just not attainable and it stresses me out (although I do like to try to keep things neat & tidy). Look for that video in the late Fall!
@@GardeningwithCreekside I’m in Columbia, SC
PS thanks for reply! I understand your reply, because I want that mass grouping, like your huge row, now it is at least 4 months before “fall”, what to do then? I planted some coneflowers in front, shrubs in back, yet there is nothing else to look at in that 5x10 area. Don’t get me wrong, love those day lilies and I do enjoy for about 5-6 weeks.
What if it’s shady. I need something pretty. Live in Zone 7a
Then check out this video! th-cam.com/video/RE-w2aTgW4s/w-d-xo.html
I don’t like the common orange one but love the newer varieties with different colors.
There sure are some gorgeous ones available!
Muito lindos
Great video! So I have Tiger Lillies in my perennial garden, they have taken over! Want to remove some for room for other perennials 😊. How far down do I have to dig them up so they don’t come back? Thank you
I once visited Southeastern China where they natively grow in the wild on rocky hills together with Lycoris radiata.
Wow!!!
Hi Jenny, I never trimmed my Daylilies from last year. Leave are green some flopping others pretty sturdy. Can I cut them down so they’re fresh?
I'd like to know how to maintain them.. I have one that looks like something smashed it down, also what to do when you see a lot of brown leaves whereas it should be green.
Great video! 😍 will y’all be back open next weekend?
We will! We are open today til 5, but closed tomorrow because of July 4th. We might slightly modify our hours for July & August due to the heat and less customer traffic. Stay tuned to our social media pages for updates!
Great info. Bought two last week, need to plant. Are they better in ground? Should I bother planting in pot?
This is going to be a dumb question, but can you plant daylilies in proximity to roses? One of my bucket-list goals is to plant my favorite rose and my favorite daylily together. They’re named after a famous couple I love. The rose is named after him; the daylily is named after her. I love the idea of having them in my backyard, being there for each other.
I’m in Zone 7B if that helps.
No dumb questions! And yes you can plant them together AS LONG AS they have the same sun requirements.
PS ~ I love your idea of planting them together! It makes perfect sense to me
Are the day lilies in your cottage garden just one plant or multiple put together ?So if we buy one proven winner container of a day lilies they will end up looking like that? Again love your videos❤️
Nope those are 1 plant that has grown over the last 3-4 years 🙌🏻
I bought primnal scream daylilies from Wayside Gardens catalog. alas, it's no longer in service.
Your videos are fabulous, please stay connected, like
185
Thanks so much!
The leaves on my day lilies are very light green, almost yellow. Water isn’t the issue ph is 7 could that be the problem?
I live in Iowa. Come around Mid July after everything is done blooming the greenery starts looking awful. Any tips to help keep it looking nice? It turns yellow. I have a large garden!
I love your channel, I learn so much. How do you get rid of aphids from the daylillies plants?
Did you get an answer to your question? I’m infested with aphids on my lilies. I’m interested if you got any information.
How do you get rid of the crab grass?
I have been saying it like the old horror movie "Nosferatu"🤣 maybe someone at PW can explain the name choice for us?! 😉
Heather Cole ha ha ha! I’ll have to be sure and ask someone!
Heather Cole Me too! I assumed it was because of the deep purple red blood color of Vampire movies.
I think you are right, Heather.
Can i put them in a pot?
Nos fer ah tu....you know? The Vampire?? LOL!
Ahhh, see that’s the problem. I am NOT a vampire/scary storyline person. Nope, nope, nope
Can I get away with planting them in a zone 9b?
So pretty! Are Tiger lilies the same as day lilies? That’s what we used to call the orange ones we would see along side the road.
Daylillies are botanically Hemerocallus, not a true lilly. There is a true lilly with recurved orange petals that is also called Tiger lilly. It helps to know the botanical name so you know what you're getting.
Thank you for the video. Are they deer and jackrabbit resistant? Anything I plant deer and jackrabbit's are eating. I'm in North California zone 9b.
Unfortunately if you already have a deer problem then they will probably find the daylilies quite tasty. As far as jackrabbits go, I have no clue. We don't have them in NC. Happy gardening!
Nope!
They are so pretty! Do you think they will do okay in containers?
I don't see why not. Just remember that they only bloom for a few weeks out of the year so the rest of the time you will either have just the foliage or nothing at all showing (wintertime when they go dormant).
Gardening with Creekside I understand, thank you for your reply!
My comment might be a problem of a little bit of knowledge, but isn’t a day lily an invasive species?
I can agree, they are industrious. And I’m still removing old ones from my property. But seeing them on the side of the highway makes me not want it on my property oasis.
Day lilies aren’t even true lilies. I do love true lilies. And I believe they are not invasive. Striking blooms.
The species type you see along the road CAN be a bully, the hybrids are MUCH better behaved. You're right, they're NOT lillies, they're Hemerocallus. Always good to know the botanical name, even if you can't spell or pronounce it so you KNOW what you're getting.
@@katiekane5247 with an "i,' hemerocallis.
www.gardenia.net/plant-variety/hemerocallis-daylilies
Daylilies are not an invasive plant in any areas that I am aware of. You will see them on the side of the highway because they are so long lived and extremely hardy. They do not reproduce by seeds or aggressive rhizomes so they are not even close to being invasive. The plants in the hedge are 16 years old and the clumps have simply enlarged over time and not spread to any other part of the property. Hope you can find some beautiful ones to add to your garden because I can't imagine you would be disappointed in them. Happy gardening!
@@GardeningwithCreekside respectfully, they can & do produce seed. How else would hybrids have been developed prior to tissue culture & tetraploids? I worked for a daylilly hybridizer many years ago.
@@Bamboo4U2 sorry, fat fingers
Do japanese beetles go after day lilies!?
Not that I’ve ever experienced
@@GardeningwithCreekside fantastic. Hate those things
Do the deer eat day lillies??
If deer are already a problem in your yard then yes they may munch on them.
Gardening with Creekside just asked for my sis in tn. They really go for her lillies & she has used spray repel but to no avail!! Thanks
Ok weird question... but where is you tshirt from?
Talbots. And just so you know they have an amazing sale going on right now 😉
Warning : Deer Candy.
I disagree. I cant kill these things fast enough!
Why?
@@GardeningwithCreekside I just purchased a home an the lady planted these around the entire property line. It is going to take FOREVER to kill them all. They spread like wild fire. They are ugly too, only flowered for a few days. Why would anyone in their right mind do this? I would strongly discourage anyone from planting these things anywhere, they are INVASIVE!
