Sharon - Thank you for all that info. I knew about culture tissue in general, but not about producing daylilies that way. That was new to me. And apparently, those that are produced that way have issues? Less hardy or not as healthy?
So basically, the plant species of daylilies probably didn't get created from culture tissue until the late 1990's .... or has it been more recent?
Seedfork - Well, it sure sounds like what mine do IF they don't survive. Two years is all that hard dormants survive in zone 9b for me. I went back through some of my photos from this year to see if I could actually see the foliage in the pictures. Unfortunately not. They may "not" be hard dormants that bloomed this year. The ones - that I suspected - had some nice blooms and look pretty good now (foliage). But what do I know?! I have lost daylilies though that did indeed have the grassing affect on the foliage. Second year they struggled and didn't come back after that.
