Daylilies are some of the easiest perennials you can grow. Most people grow them in the landscape, but they can also be grown in containers.
Growing daylilies in containers is a a bit unconventional, but a great choice if you love daylilies and don't have a ton of outdoor space or would like some color on a deck or patio.
But-although daylilies are pretty carefree in the garden, there are a few things to keep in mind in order to be successful with daylilies in containers.
In this video, Ken Oakes discusses how to choose the right container for your daylilies, what you need to consider when selecting daylilies to plant in containers, how to plant in containers, and what to do in order to keep your container daylilies thriving!

ABOUT US:
Oakes Daylilies is a family-owned daylily farm that's been in business for three generations. Our daylilies grow in home gardens, city parks and botanical gardens across the nation- including Hawaii and Canada. We are known in the industry as Daylily Experts and grow over 1000 varieties of daylilies on nearly 70 acres in East Tennessee. But over 50 years ago, we started just like you-with one daylily in a home garden.
.............................
FARM-FRESH TO YOU!
When it comes to daylily plants, bigger is better! All of the plants we ship will be three fans or larger - two or three times (or more) what you might receive from other companies. Larger plants get established faster and produce more blooms quicker.
All of your plants will be freshly dug when you order. The leaves are trimmed and the plants are washed and air-dried. Your daylilies will be out of the ground less than 48 hours before they’re headed your way.

Thank you so much for the video. I have lilies in 5 gallon pots for three years. Definitely I need to transplant them.

I put Becky Lynn in a pot and she never bloomed. I saw one of your videos and realized that the pot was too small! I fixed the problem and found out that she’s a gorgeous bloomer. Thanks again Ken 😁‼️

Up here in the Pacific NW I had a daylily in an 18" plastic pot slipped into a 22" clay pot for the last 3 years. I stuffed wood excelsior into the void between the 2 pots for insulation. Keeps roots from freezing in winter and burning in summer. Soil stays moist longer this way. Just transplanted into garden 4 weeks ago.

We use wood excelsior when we pack for shipment. We use it for several reasons, but mainly because it is biodegradable and keeps the plants protected during shipment. We haven't thought to use it as insulation, but will definitely give it a try-- very interesting! Thanks for sharing that tip!

I live in Minnesota and have 2 questions. 1st: Would daylilies have a difficult time being repotted annually? I like to have different plant combinations in pots from year to year. 2nd: I have dormant daylilies in the landscape. Would planting daylilies, planted in landscaping pots, for the winter (for easier digging up in spring) be alright? Would the plastic create freezing issues for the roots? I do realize the roots do freeze up here over winter. Thanks, in advance.

Daylilies typically look their best their 2nd year after being planted, so while daylilies potted in the spring would probably do fine, they might not look their best (have as many blooms). Repotting in the fall would probably be fine, that's when we pot the daylilies we sell at our festival, and they typically look great the next season. If spring works best for you, though, I would suggest potting earlier in the season, to give them as much time as possible to get established, and if you can move them without disturbing the soil around the roots, that will help as well.

When potting the day lilys in pots, over winter put in garage should they get anything wrapped around them to help insulate and should they be watered? Thank you. I did order from you looking forward to that delivery.

@OakesDaylilies Ай бұрын

They should be fine without insulation in a covered, unheated garage. That being said, if you live in severely cold area, and your garage is ice cold, you may still want to wrap some burlap around the containers for extra insulation. As for water, just water them well before you move them in the garage and then again immediately when you pull them out in late winter/early spring. Should be okay.

I live in Arizona and have blooms but the heat comes and I’ve moved them to the shady areas. My question is will they just burn up and die in heat?? I know nothing lives here on walls that face the afternoon sun but how much heat can they really take??

@OakesDaylilies Ай бұрын

Daylilies love heat and do well in Arizona. It sounds like your daylilies are in containers. Like anything planted in a container, daylilies do tend to need more water when planted in pots. As long as you keep them watered well (at least every couple of days, maybe every day through the heat) they should be fine. One more thing: make sure you are planting evergreen or semi-evergreen daylilies, dormant varieties like to have a cold period in the winter and may not last long-term in your area. You can find that information listed for all the varieties we sell.

@@OakesDaylilies great, thank you. Not sure what varieties I have but I better see if I can find that info.
