When is the best time to dig up Day Lilies and move them?
+6
My mother has a large day lily flower bed, but a lot of the plants have either died or got pulled up or got sprayed with Round-up. I would like to move the ones left into a smaller area.

Transplant daylilies any time of the growing season. Many people choose to transplant during the spring or early fall, allowing the plants ample time to establish themselves before the next blooming season. Daylilies are able to withstand being divided during the heat of summer.
After the tops die back....the "leaves".
Daylilys are tough and I've separated and moved them Spring Summer and early Fall without a problem.
Hi Janice. Spring is a good time to move them, but you can do it when ever as long as it is not a hot day. Day Lilies are very hardy. I have transplanted tons of them at all different times of the season. Good Luck!
