this is a very good topic as I'm up to about 250 or so now not including the ones that I have more than 1 clump of and all the other perennials that I have too. I drive a truck for a living and am gone all week long when I get home on weekends almost all of my free time is spent in the garden getting it back in shape and constantly rearranging it which by the way is what I'm doing again this year. as we are fast approaching 60 I don't want this to become a chore over the enjoyment I get getting out there and working in it. I haven't had to divide to many yet but that is fast approaching and with the added yard work and house maintenance washing cars etc. I need to say enough is enough but like everyone else it's hard to resist buying more, I've stayed off the lily auction this year and it still didn't help as I will be putting about 70 new ones in the garden this year because I've still got a cell phone that I can get a hold of nurseries and hybridizers with and buy from them that way, but if my health stays good I want to be down sized by the time I'm 70 because we will want to be going to a smaller house and yard to make it a lot easier and a lot less stressful. and by the way all of you enablers out there who take these beautiful pictures (Floota) and others are not helping my addiction either but please don't stop lol as I love to look at them and hopefully will learn how to do it myself your gardening friend Hubcap
