I suggest Nasturtiums. The rounded leaves contrast with the daylily foliage
while the blossom colors cover a range similar to daylilies. I interplant
nasturtiums with iris in one bed. They provide the focus and colour once
the iris finish blooming. In another bed, I have bee balm and explorer
roses behind the iris and tulips in front. Annuals are planted on top when
the tulips finish. I'm thinking of using chrysanthemums this year.
