I have recently purchased several different colored daylilies. I was getting ready to plant them when my neighbor told me that he had read in a magazine that you shouldn't plant different colors together. He said that one color would take over and they would all eventually be one color. I am kind of new at daylilies so I thought I would ask some professionals [flower]

I've never heard that one before. I have a couple of different varieties of daylillies in pots, haven't planted them yet since we just moved. My dad has many types around his house and grove. I don't think he's experienced that... I'll ask and get back to you. Maybe someone else knows....

Women and cats will do as they please. Men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

Howdy! love2garden [wayey]

Welcome to the forum!

I have several daylilies and about the only ones I have trouble with are the hemerocallis fulva (wild/tawny/railroad daylily). They will crowd out any varieties that are planted close to them. All of my others seem to be rather well behaved next to each other.
