Debra, I remember the non-addicted phase and that first daylily that sparked the full-blown addiction. Margaret listed Designer Jeans, this was the first dl that got me interested. Somewhere back in the 80's, maybe after it won it's HM, there was a photo in a magazine of Designer Jeans, this was the first dl I had ever seen that wasn't orange. At the time we rented so I cut that image out and put it in the someday house folder. The summer after buying our home I found the image and went on a search for Designer Jeans and planted a small 4 foot bed with DJ and a few other $5 - $10 dl's. Four years later I came across an image of Curt Hanson's new introduction Supreme Empire......still can't walk past it without stopping to enjoy the blooms!
