Daylilies do best in full sun. Four hours is usually the minimum to produce blooms. The soil must be able to drain well. To Plant: Dig a hole a little larger than the root mass. Spread the roots out like the spokes of a wheel and make a small cone for the crown to sit on so there are no air pockets. The crown should be just below the surface less than one inch. Then cover and water in.

Iris do best in full sun but a half day of sun will do especially in very hot climates. Iris will thrive in most well drained soils. To plant your new rhizome: Dig a hole as deep as the rhizomes roots. Inside the hole, make a hill high enough to hold the rhizome at ground level or slightly below and cover the roots with soil. The rhizomes should be planted so that the top of the rhizome is exposed. In extremely hot or cold climates covering the rhizome with up to an inch of soil may be desirable, but never more than an inch. Then water Her in to settle.
