Proper Planting of Spider Daylilies in Australia
Ideally, they can be planted at any month of the year. However, spider daylilies in Australia would best be planted between March and October. Where will it be planted? Find a partly shaded area or a sunny spot that provides 6 hours minimum to the flowers.
Before planting make sure that there are manure and some pelletized organic fertilizer plus agricultural lime in the soil. Ensure a space of 30 to 90 cm between each considering their size. If you are planting bare-rooted ones, form a hill in the dug hold then spread the roots over that. Top that with soil but make sure that the crown (that spot where the roots and the stem meet) is just 2 cm underneath the surface.
Surround the plant with some fertilizer, provide enough water then put some mulch. Sprinkle some water once a week until it has established itself. Note: Do not put too much water within the first few weeks after planting as this can result in it rotting.
In the end, planting your favorite spider daylilies in Australia is easier than you think. Just follow tips above and you should be able to enjoy your daylilies in bloom in the next months. Want to check out other daylily varieties? Contact Daylilies in Australia today.
