I have close to 100 of them and they are some of my favorites.

I love daylilies. Do you have over 100 seperate plantings, or over 100 different varieties? If you had to list a favorite, what would it be?

I especially like the stripey one. Do you find that any of them are especially good eating?

I have about 25 different varieties. I don't know the names of any of them. About 8 years ago a house burnt a few miles from me and the people left the property and they had massive daylilies gardens. They were getting ready to bulldoze the property and so me and another lady went over there and dug up as many dayliles as we could.

I think my favorites are the bicolor ones and then the double ones. It's so hard to make a choice.

I love em all.

I will be honest I didn't know you could eat daylilies.
