Another option for searching to see if a particular cultivar has been featured as a Plant of the Day is to go to the Past Plants of the Day forum and use the "Search this forum" box on the top right.
If you type in "Daylily" it will bring up a listing of all the daylilies, although they are not in alphabetical order.
If you type in a specific cultivar name it will find the thread where that daylily was featured if there is one.
