How well do daylilies fare in Astoria--given that they have good drainage and full sun (when there is sun)?

They should do fine. Full sun being the key. Pop in over at the daylily forum too. And we have a Pacific Northwest forum as well. http://garden.org/forums/view/...

And to ATP! Funny you should pop in today too, I had just posted a photo to another member of when I visited the Goonies house a few years back.
