Shipping Information

SHIPPING
Our 2012 shipping will begin sometime in February. We don’t like to ship during the heat of the summer .We’ve found USPS Priority Mail to be very reliable and especially good in the warmer months as the trucks are white, not brown which leads to fresher plants when delivered.  Using the U.S. mail allows us to ship all orders of 10 plants or less for only $10 per order, and $25 for all others. We don’t mind losing a bit on most orders to keep things simple and affordable. Only the two of us do the digging, washing and shipping so with few exceptions we are no longer able to do international shipping that requires phytosanitary inspections. If in doubt about shipping, please give us a call.

GUARANTEE
All plants are freshly dug, washed and shipped by Dan and Jane and we’re proud of the plants we send out! Our plants are bloom sized and true to name. The majority of new introductions are lined out as single fans, and if there is increase it gets shipped to you. (We promise a large, healthy bloom sized single fan, but in fact quite a few are double fans.) Most of the general listings are lined out as at least double fans.

BONUS PLANTS
With the exception of our new introductions we send gift plants worth about 20% of the order, so please send us a list of plants that might interest you in this regard. We are proud of our plants and if you are not satisfied for any reason upon receipt just return your order for a complete refund. Plants that winter kill can at times  be replaced with your next order. This is based on availability, but we have always done the best that we can for our valued customers. 

COLLECTION PRICES
This year Dan has 14 new full formed introductions with a collection price of $1,250 representing a saving of over 20% from the individual prices. We again suggest that you order early as we have very limited numbers this year so later in the season complete collections might be a problem.

MORNINGSTAR COLLECTION
For only the third time we are offering 4 cultivars from Jane. The past two years we received a wonderful response to this offering. For this year Jane has COUNTRY FRENCH, DRAGONFLY DAWN, LAVENDER ECHOES, and SKYLAB individually valued at $450 for a collection price of $ 300

GIFT CERTIFICATES
Daylily Gift Certificates make wonderful presents and we are happy to provide these. It’s best to contact Jane directly at (386) 574-2789 to make these arrangements.

THOUGHTS
This past  year we were overwhelmed by the number of extremely high quality selected seedlings. We were unable to decided what to keep and what not to keep.Most of these were just replanted as large clumps so the viewing should be simply grand this season. Hot colors continue to dominate my wish list but now with some new conversions and the offspring from FLORENCE DENNY very large to huge blooms are coming into the forefront. If I treated my daylily adventure as a business I’d have to have more of a balance of reds, whites, purples etc. but this is more my passionate hobby than a business. In the future you will see many more patterns, blue eyes and even teeth from me, but for now I still really like the bold and bright colors that many of these new introductions have.
