"I didn't know that there were so many different ones!" When asked what I do? I say "Grow Daylilies"
Their response "You mean those orange flowers that grow on the side of the road?"
Not being mean or bad but it's usually a waste of my time to try to explain because they just can't imagine what goes on in my back yard. With this said, I'm definitely the "in gardener". I like people, but I don't have to have people. I love for a few folks at a time to come look around. Their faces are so interesting when they see 1500 pots of daylilies sitting on the ground with about 500 different colors, shapes, sizes, eyes, edges, ruffles, teeth, etching, and all the other things a daylily can do. Then when I explain that those 2 daylilies bred to each other can produces litterally hundreds of different daylilies, they about flip out! HOW???? Amazing, isn't it??? That's why I'm a dedicated, addicted, daylily grower. That's why I spend days watering daylilies.
