When we first started buying daylilies on the Lily Auction, we got newer daylilies that were single fans. After a couple of years I noticed that these were the ones that struggled and sometimes croaked. The ones that came as double fans or better seemed to always thrive. The SFs were slow to increase, too. Abundantdaylilies is the only LA seller now that I will risk getting only a SF, and often times Mark will send more than a SF even when that is what is listed. We always have received large, healthy fans from Abundantdaylilies. I would rather pay a little more and get more than a SF or wait until the prices come down and buy more than a SF. Our summers are so hot and dry, and these conditions really stress a SF planted in early April. We are in zone 7 in NW Ga.
