Good Morning all,

Got the rest of those daylilies yesterday. There was a little bit of room in the van left to pick up some beer. We got them home, finished the final count (which ended up being 485, because I wanted 3 Cherokee Marys, a more expensive cultivar, to add to the collection) then unloaded them.

I spent the rest of the day trying to get them alphabetized and reading for planting. Only got to the "k's" and there's a lot more left. Looks like I have to extend that field some more.

Yes, I am having these plants for resale. Too much money to spend on a whim. I still have a lot to learn about them and am not ready by any means to get into cross breeding and raising them, but will learn some of that as I go. I have the land to raise them on so will give it a try.

I also stocked up on some other plants last week so I have a small variety. Trying not to put all my eggs in one basket.

It's 52 out there but the sun is coming up. I believe I will get out there as soon as I finish my coffee and get some work done before it gets hot. Asphlund is in the area trimming trees. I caught up with them yesterday and they may be bringing me a truck load of mulch today.....for free!

Here's part of my daylily field. That stuff in the back is our aluminum can crushing center. I'll post another when I get the dl's lined up nice and pretty, later today.
