I will plant the remaining seeds tomorrow. Cleaning the frog tank today. Yuk.

I do have three raised beds that I use for vegies with pvc pipe hooped over the tops. One is fairly tall with over 40" from soil top to apex of the roof. It gets quite warm when the sun is out and with some judicious spritzing gets quite humid. Might be worth a try to put at least one pot of each daylily in the north end so the pots don't obstruct sun to the vegies. At least in the spring. I was going to use the taller house for tomatoes but I have given up on them. The other two beds have hoops cut down to maybe 30" from soil to apex. I also have silver survival blankets to put over them earlier on in the spring. At least at night. And heat lamps. Anything to extend the growing season.

Thanks all. Will give it a try.
From -60 Alaska to +100 Virginia. Wahoo
