NEW Daylilies Available this Spring

Most of the following daylilies have been around for a while, but I have not had enough to divide and sell until this year. We dig most of the the plants in the early fall, pot them up and overwinter them so that they are ready to go in the spring. (We offer 125 + varieities of daylilies).

'Trahlyta' is an unusual daylily that I once offered until I ran out of stock. It’s back ... with its 6” smokey lavender bloom. It's a fragrant eye-catcher and it's a late bloomer.

'Chris Salter' is an award winning daylily with 6 " medium lavender blooms. The ruffled yellow edging makes this one a stand-out.

I have always love the appearance and performance 'Siloam' series of daylilies. They were "created" by Pauline Henry of Siloam Springs, Arkansas, and they do great here in northern Vermont. Mrs.Henry registered 490 daylilies before she died in 2000 at the age of 92. 'Siloam Double Classic,' which we sell, won the most prestigious daylily award, the Stout Silver Medal, in 1993. We offer 15 different 'Siloam' cultivars.

'Siloam Plum Tree' is one of my favorites. It’s a real beauty with 4" deep purple blooms and a small yellow throat.

'Siloam Little Girl’ has a cute 3 and 3/4 inch round lacy pink bloom with some ruffling.

'Spiritual Corridor' has a fragrant 6 " orchid lavender bloom with a pale eye and cream ruffling around the edge.

It's interesting to look at images of daylilies on the internet. The bloom from one cultivar will look completely different in each image depending on the photographer and how much the picture was photo-edited. The best time to buy daylilies is when they are blooming. Around here that's from the middle of July to the end of August.
