No I haven't been to the daylily festival but it's not for want of whining to go. LOL It's probably 1.5-2 hours from here.

We have the worst, piddly little half you know whated PBS station out here but they did used to have a weekly garden show with Mark Viette, Andre's son. Mark was great, the moron from the (see above) PBS station was, well, a moron. It suddenly disappeared. And of course I cut my gardening teeth listening to In the Garden Radio with Andre years and years ago. Was that on WTOP? I forget.

Are you talking about daylilies or lilies? I know soil and amendments can make a lot of difference in the color of daylilies. And some fade really quickly in the sun.

Here's two to try, guarantee lots of really colorful blooms that don't fade out. They're both older ones and pretty easy to find at a reasonable price.
