Ah, okay then, carry on! I tip my hat to you.

I have an area with yellow-flowered Euryops, a yellow bearded iris ('Luminosity'), and a yellow Osteospermum ('Blue Eyed Beauty') that I put a yellow daylily in. It got too yellow even for me! (The yellow daylily got yanked and replaced with a lavender one... we'll see how that color combo goes.) So now that you have explained it, I can understand (and sympathize with) your reasoning.

There are a surprising number of people who disdain yellow daylilies simply because they are "too common"... enough so that (being a lover of yellow daylilies) I now have a kneejerk reaction when somebody says that they don't like or want yellow daylilies. I guess I misjudged you as being one of them. Sorry about that! *Blush*
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
