As an Australian, it seems to me that daylilies are very popular in the US. Nobody I know actually has them.
Agreed, I've never seen them. I know they are sold here but never actually seen them which has always left me puzzled given how popular they are online. It's just roses, bird of paradise, hippeastrium, various annuals, occasionally bearded and Dutch iris, foliage plants and citrus every where around Sydney houses. Every other house (which is most every house with a front garden that isn't just lawn) has at least one rose.
