I can't promise experience or good advice, but I can promise plenty of photos! That's pretty impressive about those day lilies -- I'm glad you got tons more life out of them!

Not having the ambition nor strength at the time to divide the tight root masses with pitchforks, I tossed them under an arbor and forgot about them. Somehow they survived a pretty harsh winter. With such a will to live, I had to divide and replant them. They flowered again for several years after, better than ever. Lovely blog you have here. Now that I'm living in a condo, I need all the green I can get. This reminds me of the year I tore out huge knarls of day lilies

And those Boston gardens are gorgeous! Thanks for pointing me in that direction. Kate, I'm really lucky to have so many wise gardener advisers. Sally, I wouldn't have thought of it, either. It was a great idea! Katie, hope is a total necessity for gardening, I think. It's never a bad thing. :-) Carol, it’s really like magic. And those Boston gardens are gorgeous!

Kate, I’m really lucky to have so many wise gardener advisers.

This year I put some in the herb garden, where it belongs. I have great hopes for it now - but then I always hope! I planted some 2 years ago by the fence and it’s struggling with the summer drought.
