Two pages gave me what I wanted: why or how to eat what lily part when. (I've only ever eaten the petals, raw.) (I also scored a bonus book recommendation/citation.) Otherwise I have little use for a daylily bible. Huzzah for public libraries.

I love daylilies as they are my favorite flowers; so I loved the book. I enjoyed all the information and the photos. I understand that many people are not avid flower lovers; especially if they have to grow their own.
