Actually Juli, Dave just added 4,226 new daylilies for a total of 70,930.

I have been talking to Zuzu about the generic rose entry and one thing we thought we'd like to do is add some general info like photos and descriptions of different rose classes and styles like singles, semi-doubles, full doubles, floribundas, hybrid tea shaped blooms, etc. and then just a few shots of them in landscapes and mixed beds. She was thinking that "mystery roses might not belong on this kind of page. When you look up "rose" in the encyclopedia, you won't see mystery roses, but you will see rose landscape scenes like Rita's, and this is supposed to be like an encyclopedia page." We may edit a few of hers down so we can add a few other images, not sure yet.

We can do something like that with daylilies. A few examples of the different forms and bloom traits, the species and the newest bloom styles and some daylilies in landscape shots would round it out.
