I bought a pack of daylily "bulbs" at half price. Is it too late to plant them?

...well, I actually planted them yesterday, but they looked pretty pathetic. Now, I am a newbie, and have no clue what daylily tubers should look like, but the "tendrils" were brown and seemed like paper.


I planted them anyway, and am wondering if I'll get anything this year or next. Or was it futile?

You didn't say where you live, but I live in the northeast. I planted four about a week ago. two show growth, and nothing on the other two. There was some brown on the outside, but it takes a lot to kill daylilies. I threw some in My compost pile last year, and they're growing on top of the pile. If they don't show up this year, you'll forget all about them, and next June, Surprise!
Reply:You can't get rid of day lilies, so go ahead and enjoy them, they should poke their heads up as soon as we get some warmth
Reply:hi.


If i was you, i would keep them out of the sun at all times, and they just might come on this year, if not they will do well next year.


do hope this was of help to you
Reply:Day lilies can take a lot of punishment and still come back for more. If they are not totally dried out than they should grow and possibly bloom this year or at least the next. Good luck and I hope you enjoy there beauty for many years to come.
Reply:if the soil is broken up fine and watered a little everyday then they should grow shoots in a few days, if they dont it looks like you will have to wait, but tubers and bulbs come back every year so dont worry, just look at it as you got them cheaper than most people
