Becky, that is why you don't see hybridizers from Oklahoma. But you also may not know that we get the most tornadoes and the most earthquakes of any state. Sounds like I should be posting on some other forum here. But, Ashton formed his interest in daylilies when he was 9 years old and would not let it go so I ended up going along with him. We have about 4000 seedlings currently in the ground growing and another 5000 in trays, cups, and pots. I have about 2500 seeds from last year that I have not had time to start.
The only things you have on us is humidity and hurricanes.
Just so you know, we think this is a great place to live and we love it here.
