This photo shows both spent blooms and seed pods which appear on daylilies. The spent blooms (at the top of the photo) should be pinched off and discarded on a routine basis. If not, then the seed pod will appear as shown here. Seed pods should also be removed from the scape and discarded. That way, energy will go toward producing new scapes and blooms, thus extending bloom time.
Ever wondered what a "scape" is? Scape is the term for the stalk on a daylily plant. We appreciate Sandra for asking that question.....
