Cat, I live near Angola, and I am still learning, and learning fast, about acclimating daylilies. Last fall I planted 165 double fans, that arrived from California, without dividing them, fed and watered them well. In November I covered them with mulched leaves and pine needles. Since the heavy snow fall, they were covered with over two feet of snow and ice until late March. They all survived.
Cat, do you belong to either of the Indy daylily societies?
