Maurice - As always, thank you for the time you put into trying to explain daylily growth to me and everyone. It's sinking in.
Arlene - So you mainly grow EVs?
Here is my daylily bed a week later from my earlier photo post. I am amazed at the foliage growth. There are 9 dormants in there. No scapes that I can detect yet, but I know it won't be long. I can't wait! I am ready to see some bloom here for the first time!
My new raised key-hole daylily bed showing a week's growth!:
And another new smaller raised bed in front of my vertical herb garden. I wrote an article here on ATP about the vertical garden. The plants in that herb garden are the original plants from 2 years ago. I can't believe they have survived my hot summers (with watering) in such small garden boxes. Herbs and daylilies are tough plants! :
