You must have a lot of land to have this many. Wow! Having to take care of that many would blow my mind! Do you have any pictures posted anywhere so we can see?

I have an acre. It is a lot of work, but when bloom season comes I'm like a kid on Christmas day and can't wait to go out to see what's blooming. So all the work is worth it to me. Smiling

I've posted pics on Dave's Garden before. Will post some here once they start blooming. I've posted many close-up shots of the blooms to our data base here.

I can imagine when they are in bloom, it is so rewarding to you. My oriental poppies are in bloom and each day another one pops open and blending in with Mrs. Bradshaw geum, so pretty. I'd love to have a camera that would take the picture of one opening in slow motion, all the different stages of that poppy bulb opening. It is a lot of work but well worth it. I look forward to see your daylily pictures.
