Daylilies | Hemerocallis

DAYLILY GARDENING

The continuous rains are giving the daylilies abundant water to flourish this year. I added expanded shale to the soil as an amendment a few years ago and it is paying off this year. The daylilies started their show on May 15th and are still blooming a month later.

Daylily, Hemerocallis species,
Hemerocallis means "beauty for a day"
