Me, either. Have given away some dozen over the last year for not performing in a way pleasing to me. But they are doing just fine in pleasing their new owners. Look for form--simple is best for me. Color--reds and purples, but have been given some bonuses on other colors that I would never have picked and that are beautiful keepers. Temperature tolerance--hot here even if NOT in a drought year. Big Grin Name--have a range of B monster movie names like Dracula and Bela Lugosi. Have Oz names like A Little Fire, Scarecrow, space opera like Flash Gordon, and music like Crossfire Hurricane and Crystal Blue Persuastion names on the wish list.

Seeds might be fun later. Have only had a couple form seed pods in the last two years, so not anything to do right now.

Have at least a few perennials mixed in with all the daylilies and vice versa. Use some as memorials, like the Joshua Cullins daylily. Finally got it planted last weekend. Didn't realize the rocks were placed in the shape of a rough shield until I stepped back. Appropriate, so I left it. Smiling

It’s okay to not know all the answers.
