If I planted 10,000 day lilies, it would never be enough. Above is the first bloom from a yellow day lily in a group of new day lilies that a friend sent me as a gift a few weeks ago. The astonishing thing about these lilies is that they’re blooming generously in the first year, even though they were shipped as bare-bulb sets. The white day lily — the Joan of Arc day lily — has not yet bloomed.
Day lilies and roses — you can’t have too many.
