Being fairly new to daylilies I understand actual physical attributes we are discussing but am confused at to what the correct terms should be. I do see that both the fading of the color and the "fading" of the substance of the flower could be considered "Sunfast". Destruction of the substance by wind or rain, even though it causes destruction of the substance of the bloom would not. I guess we would all like our daylilies to have enough substance to stand up against the wind and the rain also. I looked at the AHS site to get a better idea of the terms used but did not find a definite answer.
Is there a more descriptive term used for these two attributes, "Sunfast" and "Substance", or is good enough just to describe the physical results, "Blooms that don't fade in the sun, and/or that don't lose there substance in the sun."
