Gessie- For me, to be quiet honest, I have done nothing to the daylilies and bearded irises in my plots. I only divide them about every 2-3 years and that's it. I've never fertilized, mulch, sprayed, etc. I may of course tidy up the dead leaves and stalks of the daylilies and mabye, just maybe cut the irises into that classic pyrmiad prunned look. But really, I don't do much to them.

For me I guess, I double digged all my plots in the way beginning, maybe that's helped. Not sure. Here's some pics of some new irises I recived and some pics of daylilies I have:

this one, the trader sent it to me already pruned like this.:))
