Do you deadhead them? I saw one guru on video sayng not to. That it left the scape open to infection/contamination.

One daylily has large flowers. As the flowers shrivel up, it really detracts from the new flowers opening and they stay on the scape about three days.

I've been gently tugging to get them off sooner, but am thinking of cutting them off in the morning as the new ones open. They would look so much cleaner and better, IMO.

Thanks for any advice you're willing to offer.
