The Last Dozen Daylilies

Today, we got a late burst of activity in the daylily garden.  A nice dozen showed up today.  Given I only have 11 with buds left, I believe it is the last dozen.  And, we had several finales.  Now comes the time that I contemplate what to do with the ones that have never bloomed.  Do I toss them and put divisions of some of my more reliable ones in their place?  Or give them another year?  Or a little of both?

Finales:
