Perennial Care Sheet
Daylilies, Ornamental Grasses, Hostas, and other perennials are shipped as bare root plants. Most of the dirt is washed off the plants and the foliage is intentionally cut back to just above the roots.
All perennials should be planted immediately. If this is not possible, keep plants cool and damp and plant within a few days.
Daylilies, Ornamental Grass, Hosta,
and other perennials
1. Dig a hole twice the size of the roots in width and depth.
2. Fill half of the hole with loose soil. A good topsoil or decayed compost works well. The more organic matter in the soil, the better the plant will perform.
3. Place plant in hole and fill with loose dirt. Crown of plant should be at the soil level. Tamp soil down.
4. Water plant thoroughly
Oriental Lily Bulbs
1. Dig a hole approximately 8 inches in depth.
2. Fill bottom 2 inches with loose soil. A good topsoil will work well.
3. Place bulb so the point is up and the roots are down. Fill with loose topsoil and tamp down the ground.
4. Water bulb thoroughly.
Note: Daylilies, Grasses, and Oriental Lilies will do better in sun. Also certain varieties of daylilies when mature are by nature small plants, such as Stella De Oro and Happy Returns.
IMPORTANT
Bare
root plants are an economical way of purchasing perennials,
however they do require some care in the first year.
Perennials should be watered
during any dry period. (7 days or more without rain). This is very important!!
Do not fertilize in the first 3 months after planting. After this time frame any good water soluble fertilizer such as Miracle Grow will work well.
