LOL I was just thinking that the exact same thing will happen to me eventually. If I give-in to buying more and more plants, or keeping more and more seedlings, which I think most here will agree is inevitable, I 'll have to shrink the existing clumps or buy more land. Or I suppose I could convert more and more of my lawn into planting beds!

Dennis, This is a wonderful group to be part of and Daylilies are addictive! You would not believe how many I have managed to fit into my little city lot! Looks like you have lots of room to grow.

Lawns are over-rated (says the woman who is systematically shrinking hers).
I could be accused of tooting my own horn (I tend to do that occasionally), but here's an easy way to build raised beds over craptacular soil... http://garden.org/ideas/view/f...
