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.
Daylilies are occasionally infested with mildew or insects in summer. Cut back badly affected plants to within 6 inches of the ground. The plants grow back healthy foliage and usually resume blooming within four weeks. Divide the daylily bulbs every five to seven years. Dig and divide after the foliage dies in fall or before new growth begins in spring.
