RE: Yahoo! Photos: tchessie's photo(s)/callas/

Oh Lord yes. Those tuberous roots handle it well and they store the
water for dry times. They flourish here in wet winters and dry summers,
some in unamended gumbo clay too. I read in one of my gardening
magazines that after hurricane Hugo, somewhere on the Carolina coast
there was a gardener whose yard was under water for like a month and the
only thing that survived the deluge was the daylilies. Interesting story
that.

Tough plants and beautiful.  Love 'em.....
