Oh, there are lots of daylily topics that I know nothing Confused about. You are very welcome.

Can you tell me how the scapes of LW and Jerusalem are in relation to other daylilies? Is LW fairly thin in comparison? Are Jerusalem's pretty sturdy?

Because of the way I am growing them any comments I make are not likely to be true in other locations or when you grow them. LW has a thinner scape than Jerusalem and it is a bit taller. Jerusalem has a proportionately thick scape for its ploidy and flower size.
Do either of them tend to have more than 2-way branching?

I believe so here (particularly for LW) and I expect that they would with better growing conditions - that is genetically they probably do.
Have you noticed lots of blooms and/or a long bloom season on either of them?

LW has a longer bloom season than Jerusalem in my growing conditions. But because of their growing conditions here that may not be meaningful. LW was divided and lined out into a short row many years ago so it has a bit of an advantage over Jerusalem in the amount of self-competition (size of clump) it has to endure.
