I thought that there was only
one strain of daylily rust in the US?
Fascinating thread - that your daylilies do better in the shade in your gardens, and that you get rebloom.
We are going to convert a couple small patches of lawn area into shade (or semi-shade) garden plantings. (The grass dies in the deeper shade every winter, the invading rabbits have now established themselves here and eat what is left of the grass, our dog (whom we adopted a year ago) digs up the rest as he races over what is left of the turf...) I was going to populate them with shade plants and maybe one shade tolerant rose, but now I am wondering if I should trial a daylily or two in there (in the not-so-deeply shaded parts).
