    The shortcut event handlers (such as click(), mouseover() etc) will only apply to elements which are available to the DOM on page load. When appending elements dynamically you have to attach the event to a static parent element, and supply a filter which you wish to delegate events to, like this:

    $("body").on('mouseover', '.hoverme', function() {
        $(this).css({backgroundColor: '#000'});                    
    });
    $("body").on('mouseout', '.hoverme', function() {
        $(this).css({backgroundColor: '#0af'});                 
    });
    

    Note that I’ve used body here as the primary selector. Ideally you should use the closest containing element to the .hoverme elements which is not dynamically appended to the DOM.

    Working fiddle

    Also, you can slightly tidy your code by using hover():

    $("body").on('hover', '.hoverme', function(e) {
        if (e.type === 'mouseenter')
            $(this).css({backgroundColor: '#000'}); 
        else
            $(this).css({backgroundColor: '#0af'});          
    });
