July and the daylilies are in daily bloom. Some daylilies are now rebloomers or constant bloomers like Stella D’Oro, especially the beefed-up Stella D’Oro version 2. Bloom colors of gold, yellow, pink, salmon, white, purple, and orange, along with bi-color and tricolor combinations, with as many petal color designs and shapes, make this plant a real winner in many categories.
Daylily tip: blooms need to be fed if you want premium show blooms in your bed. Fertilizer can be added into the water used to hydrate these plants so they may utilize the nutrients they need to produce blooms at their peak.
