Leaving aside the question of whether advertising in this group is a
good thing, I have to say that these daylilies look... well - rather like
dustcovers ;


?? The flowers don't look like book jackets to me at all. Did you
mean dustmop? :-)


Heh ; No - I'm thinking of the wretchedly ruffled victorian mostrosities
that they used to put on -everything- to "keep the dust off" ;

With some 50,000 hemerocallis cultivars, there's bound to be
considerable straying from the original(?) orange ditch-lily. I
thought they were rather interesting. Not $200 interesting, but if
someone planted one in my yard, I wouldn't dig it up. :-)


Heh. If I'm going to spend $200, I think I'd buy peonies ;
