Daylily Fertilizing: Get More Flowers This Year
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Alright, let’s talk about feedin’ them daylilies. You know, the pretty flowers that grow all over the place? Yeah, them. They need to eat too, just like us, but they ain’t gonna be chompin’ down on no burgers, that’s for sure. They need somethin’ special, somethin’ to make ’em big and strong, and bloom real nice-like.

Now, some folks say you gotta feed ’em right when you plant ’em. That makes sense, I guess. Get ’em started off right, you know? Like givin’ a baby a bottle of milk. But then, you gotta keep feedin’ ’em, every year, ‘specially in the spring. But hold your horses! Don’t go feedin’ ’em too early, or that frost gonna get ’em. Wait till that cold stuff is gone, then you can give ’em a good meal.

When to Feed Them Daylilies?

Springtime is the best time, that’s what I always say. When them little green shoots start pokin’ outta the ground, that’s when they’re hungry. But don’t go overboard, you hear? Too much food and they’ll just grow leaves, big ol’ leaves, and no flowers. And what good is a daylily without flowers? Ain’t no good at all, I tell ya.

Some folks like to feed ’em again when them flower buds start showin’ up. That makes sense too, I guess. Give ’em a little extra boost to make them flowers pop. But again, don’t go crazy. Just a little bit, that’s all they need.

  • Early Spring: Give ’em a little somethin’ to get them leaves growin’.
  • Mid-Spring to Early Summer: Another little somethin’ when you see them flower buds comin’.

What Kind of Food to Give ‘Em?

Now, there’s all kinds of fancy food out there for plants, but I ain’t got no time for that fancy stuff. I like to keep it simple. A good slow-release fertilizer, that’s what I use. Or you can use some of that natural stuff, like compost. That’s good too. Just make sure it’s somethin’ that’ll help them roots grow strong. Strong roots, strong plant, that’s what I always say.

And listen here, some folks say you gotta feed ’em two or three times a year, ‘specially if your dirt is no good. But me? I just feed ’em once in the spring, maybe twice if they lookin’ a little puny. But most of the time, once is enough. Daylilies are tough, they can handle a little bit of hardship. They ain’t like them fussy roses, always needin’ somethin’. Daylilies are low maintenance, that’s why I like ’em.

Other Things to Keep in Mind

Now, feedin’ ’em ain’t the only thing you gotta do. You gotta take care of them flowers too. When them old flowers start to wilt, you gotta cut ’em off. That’s what they call “deadheadin’.” Sounds kinda morbid, I know, but it helps the plant make more flowers. And who don’t want more flowers? I sure do.

And if you got them rebloomin’ daylilies, well, they’re a whole different story. They bloom more than once a year, some in the spring and then again in the fall. So you gotta keep an eye on ’em and feed ’em when they need it. But mostly, just treat ’em right and they’ll treat you right. They’ll give you lots of pretty flowers, and that’s all that matters, ain’t it?

So there you have it, my two cents on feedin’ daylilies. It ain’t rocket science, you know? Just give ’em a little food, a little water, and a little love, and they’ll do just fine. And you’ll have a beautiful garden full of pretty flowers, and that’ll make you happy, and that’s what it’s all about.

The bottom line: Just feed them daylilies a bit in spring and maybe a tiny bit more when buds show up. Use slow-release stuff or compost. Cut off old flowers. That’s it! They’ll grow nice and pretty for ya.
