This is the first year I have had the issue below. Does anyone know what would cause this to happen? Of course the first daylily it happened to happened to be one I paid $50 for and I had never seen it bloom. Whatever did this, did it to all of the buds on this plant. Now I have been seeing it sporadically amoung the daylilies. Also, only in the front yard which has newer beds and not protected by a fence. It cannot be a rabbit because some of the scapes it happened on are over 40" tall.
