We took to growing daylilies a couple of years ago, and started with what is called your 'ditch or outhouse' lily. It quickly became a fascination.

At last count we had about 35 varieties growing in various flower beds around the property. They add considerable beauty and a new perspective to life. You can find photos from our daylily gardens here.

We have found that the daylilies grow quite well in any soil. In soil that isn't suitable for ANYTHING else. We grow them in rocky clay soil here in the Carolinas, in the same location as our veggie beds that required more amending than I care to think about.

They are a blessing in many ways. Full of life and color when everything else is either green or brown and the landscape is colorless. The also require almost NO maintenance unless you want them too. :)

Varieties we currently grow are:

King Lamoni Stella Supreme Stella d'Oro Edge Ahead Joan Senior Pardon Me Eenie Allegro Louise Manellis Golden Ruffles David Kirchoff Buttered Popcorn Ming Toy Red Volunteer Almost Done Rose Veil Theresa Hall Strawberry Candy Minstrel Boy Campfire Embers

Darius Route 66 Lavender Vista Sweet Hot Chocolate Sammy Russell Aztec Gold Kwanza Persian Market Final Touch Fulva Happy Returns Chorus Line Veins of Truth Moonlit Masquerade Serene Madonna Double Cutie Yellow Lollipop Latest Additions: Pink Charm Romantic Rose Jordan Dream Legacy Blue Tooth Arctic Snow

Cady has planted about 400 gladiolas and Iris's this year for cut flowers. I look forward to watching them grow.

We have just begun planting ornamentals including Russian sage and a purple sage.
