I know there is certainly no one answer to that question. Everyone will have their own answer.
I see a lot of people here increasing their daylily purchases, breaking their budgets, and dreaming of even more.
But, there is also the group that have been in it for years and have found themselves overloaded as they have aged.
I don't know about the rest of the country but around here it seems every daylily vendor is retiring(for a second time), because it has just become too much work.
So at the age of 67, I am really just getting into daylilies and would love to hear some sage advice how to enjoy without getting overloaded.
I have pretty well limited myself so far, by restricting myself to (almost all) rust resistant plants as listed by the data base, preferring one with a 1.0 rust rating. Believe me that is pretty restricting. Plus I am making some effort not to buy ones too similar, and so far not many doubles, spiders, UFO's just enough to get a little variety.
Still I might have already surpassed the 100 number and I can see, there is no way I can continue at this rate, even though it seems the purchases are few and far between...oh how we can deceive ourselves.
So if you had it to do all over again, what would you do different...if anything. What restrictions would you advise, any general advice or specific actions would be welcome.
