Thanks for that information Daniel. I've never tasted one of my daylilies, and I've never had ants on them, so I don't know what the reason is. Interesting though!
That is a lot of diamond dust on that daylily! I've got a few myself that have a lot, but I'm not considering them as parents just yet. I need to figure out what I'm doing first. I also need to figure out which one of my daylilies has the most diamond dust, and go from there.
