Today I was reminded of one more extra benefit of daylilies – they bloom and bloom and bloom and bloom and then they go to seed and THEN, in fall, I harvest the seeds and then cut them back when I cut back the rest of the garden. Soooo easy!
I absolutely love the massive bloom of asian lilies. They are gorgeous! But when they are done blooming I trim them back before they go to seed, some in back parts of a fully stacked garden, sometimes precariously balanced to avoid harming other plants, in the July heat.
Today was that day. It’s very much worth it. Daylilies are just a wee bit easier.
