The short daylilies do set more pods (more work to remove them) than the tall ones. A few do hold their deadheads so well that they don't detract from the plant as the wet dish rag type.

Yes, Dawn and Dave, snap off those rhodie heads and cut back the peonies to the leaves behind the dead buds.

Just 'Pandora's Box' gives a constant 1000 deadheads every summer.
