Depo-Provera is an injection containing the synthetic hormone progestin which is called depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA). Depo-Provera is a hormonal method of contraception obtained by prescription.
Though each bloom only lasts one day, the number of blooms that appear can create months of color. Many perennials, including daylilies, can tolerate a variety of growing conditions. While some cultivars of daylilies grow best in full sun, others benefit from afternoon shade.
When daylilies are sent through the mail, they are cut back to about 5-6, and when planted, they sometimes lose the original foliage, and new foliage sprouts from the crown. I don't know where you are in zone 5, but you should have a few weeks of growing weather left before the ground freezes, so maybe there's hope.
