spunky1 said:I know of no daylilies that won't get rust when the conditions are right, everyone that has daylilies should be aware of this. Some hybridizers will give the results of rust resistance in there garden, but that doesn't mean they won't get rust in your garden. All of us in the south that ship daylilies do everything possible to keep rust out and would never ship a daylily with visible rust. Just be aware, no matter where you get daylilies from, north or south, you may have to spray them for rust.

Ok, here was my thinking.... If a daylily is susceptible it would develope rust if conditions were favorable. I knew from the beginning that my conditions were favorable that is why I did not buy the susceptible daylilies. If they are all susceptible then the information in the database is useless. I will just buy what I want and deal with it one day at a time. Thumbs up

Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Mat.6:28-29
