And I was going to say the same as Sandy - after they bloom, an application of fertilizer will keep the plant from getting that "summer's over" look and you'll have many more blooms the next year. I admit - I do love my lilies!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185255434783858464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-64715335740997012662012-11-13T09:52:53.531-06:002012-11-13T09:52:53.531-06:00The orange "ditch lilies" are not favori...The orange "ditch lilies" are not favorites of mine and I am sick to death of Stella d'Oro yellow, which I refuse to invite into the garden; but the pastel and deep dark purples and reds are a passion for me. After blooming a shot of nitrogen keeps the blades pretty and green and causes them to put on new growth. The more blades, the more blooms for next year.<br />Lovely photos of the skeletons. I've never seen these, as I always deadhead the seed pods.

As you can see, I'm not fond of them either. Maybe because they are EVERYWHERE in these parts.

I'll admit, I'm not the biggest Daylily fan, either. If they didn't always end up looking ratty after blooming, I think I'd be ok with them...but, well, they always do ;-)scottweberpdxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740930947767329183noreply@blogger.com
