Also, please tell me more about the rust susceptibility of some daylilies .... some are and many aren't? I know that daylily rust was introduced into this country from a foreign import somewhere along the line.... What other traits are not deemed desirable? Prone to pests or other diseases? Are all daylilies susceptible to root-knot nematodes? (I ask because that is an issue we battle down here in the southern portion of Florida.)
Fascinating discussion. So much to learn and such a great group of daylily hybridizers and experts here! Truly awesome!!!
