Hi Birdsnblooms,
I know exactly what you mean about what to do when the blooms are gone. I have loved daylilies for years but got soo tired of waiting untill July to see the blooms. Thanks to a DG friend I became addicted to iris now too. So this was my plan last year. I planted a nice big bed across the front of my yard. Every other plant is an iris and every other one is a daylily. With this being the first year of blooms I was thrilled with the irises in May. And now I am enjoying the daylilies. I planted a few red leaf coralbells and sedums to add some continuous color other than green. And added marigolds for eye catching. This picture does not do justice but this is my idea and I think I am gonna be very pleased with it. Good luck with yours. (The new bed actually starts on the far side of the purple salvias.)
