Hemerocallis 'Squeaky'

How to grow Hemerocallis 'Squeaky' in NZ

Hemerocallis 'Squeaky' grows best in full sun or partial shade with fertile, well drained soil enriched with organic matter. Water regularly while plants establish, then only during extended dry periods. Apply a balanced fertiliser in spring to encourage vigorous growth and abundant flowers. Remove spent flower stems after blooming and divide established clumps every few years to maintain strong flowering performance. Set the plant at its original nursery depth and water the surrounding soil thoroughly after planting.

Hemerocallis 'Squeaky' care tips

Hemerocallis 'Squeaky' is very easy to maintain once established. Keep the soil moist during prolonged dry weather and apply mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Remove old flower stems and tidy damaged foliage as required. Feed each spring with a quality garden fertiliser to promote healthy foliage and prolific flowering. Divide overcrowded clumps every three to five years for the best results. Check established plants regularly so damaged growth or developing problems can be addressed promptly.

Hemerocallis 'Squeaky' size, spacing, and growth rate

Hemerocallis 'Squeaky' typically grows 0.4 to 0.6 m tall and spreads 0.4 to 0.6 m wide. Space plants around 0.4 to 0.5 m apart to create a full display while maintaining good airflow. Growth is steady, with plants forming larger clumps each year that produce increasing numbers of flowers during the flowering season. Measure spacing from plant centres when setting out a border or larger group. Growth will vary with local climate, light, soil, and the level of maintenance provided.
