Would Love to See:
- An article that is like the ATP Series on Hybridizers, only its about maybe small-yard hobby hybridizers at ATP who have stories, tips, and pics and/or seedlings to show for demonstrating what their goals and such are (could be a spotlight on just one hobby hybridizer, a few, or a bunch all at once...).
- Something about the different kinds of traits that aren't covered in the usual terms of definitions. What is a "velvety" petal (versus a satiny or waxy one) and how does it perform in different conditions? Why do some doubles have two pistils, and will they allow pollination of different sections of a single pod? Are there daylilies that have longer "stems" out from the scape (would they droop, would they make nice cut flowers?)
- What are some creative DIY ways to make daylily flower displays, so that a group of blooms that otherwise have no stems to support them, can be enjoyed without cutting off the entire scape? How would you keep the blooms as fresh as long as possible, and is it possible to preserve and dry the blooms while retaining form and color?
- Natch, we all want to see an article on the amazing indoor-overwintering daylilies ......
... But I'll hush now ... just too many questions and I'll get in trouble if I start nominating people ... so I hope you-can-guess--who-you-ares will step up and volunteer!
