Planting Bare-Root Daylilies in Fall: Soil Prep and Overwintering

Fall Is Ideal for Transplanting

Daylilies are hardy and transplant well in fall, giving roots time to establish before spring bloom. In North Florida's mild climate, they'll settle in easily.

Soil Preparation

Use organic soil amended with compost, aged manure, peat moss, shredded leaves, and dried grass clippings. Till amendments in deeply. Avoid plain topsoil. If needed, buy bagged organic garden soil.

Holding Bare-Root Plants

Keep roots moist (not submerged) in a cool, shaded spot until planting. Plant as soon as beds are ready. Water well after planting and mulch lightly.
