Rainbow Rhythm® Persian Ruby Daylily Care
Full sun is required for the best blooms. However, it can also cope with partial shade. It happily grows in any soil type and pH as long as good drainage is present. Water regularly during the first year of growth. Once established, watering is only required during hot and dry spells. Fertilizing is not usually required; instead, mulch annually with organic matter in the spring.
Remove spent flowers and their stems as they develop. Divide crowded plants in spring every few years.
Rainbow Rhythm® Persian Ruby Daylily Spacing
The Rainbow Rhythm® Persian Ruby Daylily can reach a final size of 30 inches tall by 18 to 24 inches across. Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart to give them room to fill out.
