Larry - I just read this thread and have also found the info that others have shared VERY useful. I, too, would like to grow only rust resistant daylilies, so this thread is extremely helpful to me as well. I have partially shady beds and full sun beds, so I hope more comments are posted here with that kind of information. I was hoping some folks from Florida would share info about any of their rust resistant daylilies because the rust is really bad here.
Ashton, Vickie, Polymerous, Cindy, and Claudia - Thank you so much for your input! Very, very much appreciated!
The rust problem is such an issue here in the south that many people no longer consider adding daylilies to their gardens and I think that is the main reason I rarely see any for sale at local garden nurseries. I garden organically, so spraying is not an option. Nice foliage is one of my top 3 requirements for a daylily cultivar to have a "permanent" place in my yard. I grow mostly seedlings for the very reason I can't spend a lot of money on registered daylilies not knowing how rust resistant they might be here. I really, really appreciate the list you are compiling! Thank you!
