Those are badges. Early one, they were free. Now they cost "acorns" which you get from posting photos into the database. And just because you are addicted to daylilies doesn't mean that is what photos you can post, I have posted photos of wildflowers and other perennials.
And welcome Hazel!!!
We just love to enable ( don't we fellow addicts!
And I started off with only red daylilies. Then it was purple, then orange, now yellow. With ruffles, with teeth, spiders, UF's, minis...... The addiction never quite seems to end.
in fact, just got another batch today, ordered 4+ a special, got an additional 4 I didn't order....
And I discovered seeds.... Had my first blooms on a few of my 45 yearlings this summer. Some pretty, some I called Ugs. Have 10 additional seedlings planted for this year. Perhaps a few of them will bloom next year. It's a way to get some genetics one might not be able to otherwise afford. Already looking to order more seeds for next year.
By the way, I have only been at this for 3 years now. It doesn't take long for the addiction to develop, not long at all!
Again, welcome Hazel~ Jan
