Hi John
I have only heard of using cholchicine and surflan to convert
daylilies. I would think someone could just pull the outer leaf back to
expose the bud and smear it on. It seemed to me but I never experimented
that much that the buds broke open better if you soaked the buds and
crown with bap 10 more so than spraying the leaves.
