Maurice, the thread was an old thread, since I'm new on this forum I started to read from the older pages and found it. If I can find it again I will put a link here.
In that thread there was exactly the theory you mentioned: lateral scape are leftover scape.

If I get it right the cycle it's the same for all daylilies: a certain number of leaves, then scape; and then again. So the little leaves I see on a side of my single fan are the first leaves of a new fan. But "old" fans (the originary fans you plant) keep on growing leaves and scapes, right?
Sorry I'm hoping to write in a clear manner sometimes I have a bit of difficulty putting together long english sentences!
Reblooming so seems to me just a matter of "time": if the season and the weather are fine the life cycle continues, and a plant can reeblom; but when cold occurs then it stops. So, potentially, if summer would last 6 months we could have 6 months of blooming? But why some DLs are told to be "instant rebloom"? Do they something different in the growing cycle? Or is it due to a really fast growth under the right condition? This would explain why some are not "instant rebloomers" for everyone of us. Thank You!
