Dear Daylily Friends,
2008 was a great year for growing daylilies. There were
enough early rains to carry us through most of the bloom
season. 2008 was the most outstanding seedling crop that we
have ever had, with some outstanding colors in the beds.
Our daylilies are not “pumped up”. We do not throw the
fertilizer to them so that the fans are as big around as your
wrist. Our plants usually get less than normal fertilizer and
water . . . they survive. Because of this, our introductions
normally grow better for other people than they do for us.
We have seven new introductions this year for your
consideration. All are tetraploids, and most are limited. We
always grow a few of our introductions in the greenhouse
during the winter for those wanting their plants early.

We will try to meet your request for shipping starting in March. This sometimes is a very wet
month which does not allow us to get into the field to dig. Remember, this is not Florida and
plants will not be large that early. Please be patient with us and we will get your orders out
as close to the date requested as possible. It would help us if you would make some
suggestions for gift plants to send with your order.

We are able to offer daylily gift certificates for any amount and
occasion.
We will gladly hold plants from email and telephone calls for
ten days, at which time we expect to receive your written
order and check in the mail. You will find an order form with
this web site. Sorry for this inconvenience, but we are a small
family garden and have only so many plants of each
introduction.
Our garden is State inspected and our plants are guaranteed
to be true to name.
It has just become too expensive for us to accept credit cards.
We do accept checks and Pay Pal.
If you find yourself in the southeast near Chattanooga, please
stop and visit with us. In March, April and May we have many
newer cultivars blooming in the greenhouse. We usually have
good garden bloom from the end of May to the end of June. We
will also have several thousand seedlings blooming in late May
and Early June. A call ahead is appreciated to insure we are
here to greet you. Always some special garden prices.

| Jean took a picture of me standing in the seedling field. I sent the image to the late Bob Carr and he added the fence, sign, burning tree, Jack Ass, old house, and the Harley Davidson t-shirt. |
