The only hope for you and your pocketbook (and possibly your marriage because of your pocketbook) is to hybridize. You'll get hundreds of new daylilies each year, ones no one has seen before and you can even register them and name them.


Aha! There is a sensible way to justify my growing over 550 daylily seedlings. Thank you, Leslie Thank You!

I have been lurking, but I don't really need a Support Group. LOL, It is funny why some of us become so smitten with dls or other plants. I don't understand it but boy and I enjoying every minute of it. Hurray!

@Lalambchop1 I have started on that hybridizing path- just shy of sprinting down it : )
I have some 3rd spring, 2nd spring and first spring dl's and a bunch I started in January and more seeds that are just germinating, somewhere in the area of a couple hundred babies. I bought a label maker- thanks to all who posted their findings! My bday gift this year was a three year AHS membership. I have my Nebraska Daylily Society membership... So I guess I'm a bonafide gen-you-wine card carrying member of Hemercallis R Us 😂 Next step is doing the paperwork for licensing- planning on next summer for that though.

I tried to load a picture on my admission 😇 post- didn't work. Can't get it to load tonight either Shrug!
