Planting and Care:
- Planting: Choose a location with full sun to partial shade. Daylilies bloom best with at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Ensure the soil is moist and well-drained. Amend the soil with compost or other organic matter before planting. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball and plant at the same depth as the container. Space plants about 18-24 inches apart.
- Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods. Daylilies need consistent moisture to thrive and produce abundant blooms.
- Fertilizing: Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth begins. You can also fertilize lightly after the first flush of blooms to encourage reblooming.
- Mulching: Mulch around the plants with shredded bark, compost, or pine needles to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect the crown.
- Deadheading: Remove spent flower heads to encourage more blooms and prevent the formation of seed pods, which can divert energy from flower production.
- Division: Divide clumps every 3-5 years, or as needed, to prevent overcrowding and rejuvenate the plant. Division is best done in spring or fall.
Special Considerations:
- 'Sound of My Heart' makes a lovely addition to sunny borders, cottage gardens, or container plantings.
- Its fragrant, pastel-colored blooms add a touch of romance and elegance to the garden.
- It pairs well with other sun-loving perennials, especially those with contrasting flower colors and textures.
- Daylilies are relatively low-maintenance and are a great choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners.

Other Details
The most important part of the plant is its root system. Healthy roots are the foundation of a healthy, vibrant plant. The type of plug container used is based on the specific needs of the plants. Perennials offered as bare root traditionally perform better when planted as bare root.Planted in a specialized mix, potted plants have well established root systems. Top growth stage will vary depending on the current life cycle and time of year when shipped. In Winter and early Spring dormant plants may be shipped. Dormant plants may be planted right away, even before the last frost date.
Most bare root varieties are field grown for at least one season, though Hemerocallis and Hosta are grown for two seasons. The bulk of the soil is removed during the harvesting process and the tops of most varieties are trimmed back to the crown. They are graded, packed in shredded aspen or sphagnum moss and stored in freezers until ready to be shipped.

Plant information and care is provided in the Overview section, Plant Genus Page and general information is provided in the Planting Care & Guides. Additional questions can be asked on each Plant page.
Plant Spacing: Using the maximum mature spread or width of a plant to guide spacing, ensures space to grow to full size. To fill an area sooner, plant them closer together. Just remember, future thinning or transplanting may be needed.
Water: Keep a close eye on newly planted perennials, especially throughout the first growing year. Most early plant loss is due to too much or too little water!
