Deb I am in the same zone as Michelle..
southeast alabama..zone 8 here
lower part of zone 8..
I guess I can leave them till they turn brownish or go ahead in late october
when they do not need the green leaves anymore to grow
and cut straight across to tidy up the daylily bed and then the falling
leaves will be easier to blow out of the bed when late feb comes...
I use the Toro yard blower to blow the leaves out...of the beds
and then blow the dust and dirt off myself after I plug my ears
up lst... with ear plugs to perserve hearing..
Good idea to use ear plugs when using the vacumn in the house or yard blowers
outside or any loud noise machines..
thanks to all who have replied
