I can't edit captions under "Commons" images: Hemerocallis fulva (typo "dailily") is shown in its double mutation sometimes called flore-pleno.This is a garden form, not the species. A good caption might note that. --Wetman 15:31, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I renewed the main photo of a daylily. The original was slightly out of foucs, and the new one shows more detail of an example of the flower. --liquidGhoul 00:58, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Toxicity?
This website: http://www.fehd.gov.hk/safefood/report/toxin_veg/012006_index.html
says that the buds and roots are mildly toxic. Is this true? Here's the text:
- "Fresh Jin Zhen - It is the floral part of a plant harvested before it was in blossom. Fresh Jin Zhen has been used in dishes as fresh vegetables. A natural toxin known as colchicine is concentrated in the root of the plant and it is also found in the floral part of fresh Jin Zhen. Poisoning may be resulted from consumption of fresh Jin Zhen which has not been soaked well in water and cooked thoroughly. Symptoms of poisoning may include gastrointestinal discomfort, such as abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea. However, colchicine in Jin Zhen is destroyed during cooking and processing and therefore commercially processed Jin Zhen and Jin Zhen in the dried form are non-toxic (photo)."
