I have some fairly expensive single fans shipping soon. I wouldn't ordinarily order such expensive ones for fall shipping, but it was necessary to grab them while I had the chance.

Here in Ohio, daylilies can usually be planted out through September -- and some hybridizers line out through October -- but I've lost plants planted out in September and prefer to limit mine through the end of August. (I should mention that we are able to get snow in mid-October.)

I leaf-mulch heavily, but would love to know if there is anything else I can do to ensure that they live and return in Spring. For example, planting them (well-labeled, of course) together as a clump?
