Amazing! Looking forward to seeing more pics, especially long-shots that give a perspective on height. :)

Juli, you anticipated why I am cautious about getting a plant in my rather small back yard that would soon challenge my ability to keep it contained in-ground. Clump size and spreading rate would both be strong considerations for me - and I wonder what people are experiencing (generally?) with those taller plants. Rapid spreading makes even normal clump size cultivars a concern...

Any recommendations for taller-scaped cultivars that have both near-normal clump size and a slower growth rate? That kind of observation is rare to find through any source, so would be cherished.

And, does anyone think root-sytem/increase concerns might apply to large-flowered daylilies?
