| Ctdaylily-Northern grown daylilies Sales Info |
We have ordered many plants from vendors all over the country for the past
10 years or so. We believe that the plants we send are comparable in size and
quality to any we have received. Occasionally a variety may not do well for us
and may be the exception to the rule. Also, many spider/UF's are naturally
smaller in stature than other types. If you ever are unhappy with a plant we
send you for any reason please let us know and we will do whatever it takes
to make it right.
Please e-mail or call (203) 294-9520 to order and check on availability. We
do not have an on-line order form.

2008 PRICE LIST-* denotes tetraploid--Info provided is the hybridizer ,
height of plant, flower size, foliage habit, flower description and cost. All are
double fans unless noted single (S) or multiple (MF). Some are in short supply.
You may inquire about those marked "DISP". This means they are for display
only until we can build up an adequate supply, but we may have a fan or 2 we
can sell. There will always be some we have but have not yet added to the
sales list so feel free to ask if there is something you do not see. I have tried to
use the year of introduction instead of the year of registration because I feel
this has more meaning for most buyers. Eureka uses the year of registration so
you will see differences in the listings accordingly.
SHIPPING-- We normally ship via priority mail which arrives in 2-3 days. We
usually ship on Mon,Tues, or Sat. The objective is not to have a plant arrive
on the weekend so it might sit in the PO until Monday. Shipping on Sat. is fine
since the mail does move on weekends. Shipping is $8.00 for one plant. Add
$.50 for each additional plant.
All plants are dipped in a fungicide or bleach solution before shipping.
International shipping. We will ship to any country as long as their are no
special requirements. Our state does not charge for a phytosanitary inspection.
It is a bit of a hassle to do the necessary paperwork and we require a $250 min
order internationally. We will not ship to any country that requires any
special permits from their agricultural jurisdiction. Payment in US funds
only-check, money order, or Paypal. Global express mail to Europe takes
about a week and costs $40-50 a box. UPS seems to work best for Canada.
The expedited shipping costs about $75 for a full box but it can arrive in two
days and my understanding is the higher class saves you brokerage fees. We
will ship via any means you wish. We have found that cutting back the foliage
significantly(1-2" left),trimming the roots, and wrapping the roots of each plant
individually in a plastic baggie seems to work best for global shipping but will
pack them any way you wish.
Minimum USA order is $40.We will ship from May1--Oct.1, weather
dependent. We will normally ship via priority mail on a Mon.,Tues, or Sat.
Every attempt will be made to accommodate your desired dates but please
remember I am basically a one person operation. Some newer varieties are in
the greenhouse for hybridizing purposes. These normally bloom in
April-May. They will not be ready to divide and ship until the pods are
harvested in May or June. We include bonus plants with all orders. We try to
give 50% or better of the total order. This may mean extra fans of the cultivar
you have ordered or of one of our choice. Just to be clear --if you order a
double fan and get three fans --that's a 50% bonus. If you ask for specific
bonuses we will try to accommodate you but you may not get 50% in value for
the bonus plants.
Images. Click on any daylily image to see a larger version. Images may be
used only with the express permission of Ctdaylily, LLC. Most photos were
taken by me in my garden or greenhouse with a point and shoot digital camera.
I am not very good at photography so in most cases the flowers are prettier
than shown. Some images are used with the permission of others. I try to use
my own images because sometimes plants look different in one's garden than
in the catalogs. If I don't have an image, or if the image I have is not
representative of how the flower really looks in my garden I try to find one that
I feel is appropriate. I believe every image I have used on this site is with the
permission of the image owner. If you see your image and I have somehow
neglected to ask your permission, please tell me and I will remove it. If you
have an image of one I do not have, please feel free to send it to me!

as defined by AHS.

I also included images of scapes that I thought exhibited good plant
habits-branching,bud count,etc. Most of what I grow is in pots which can limit the
branching etc. So you could expect better performance than what I have. We buy only
the best potting mixes-our current favorite is Metromix 360 with coir. We amend the
mix with some special ingredients the plants seem to like. We do not skimp on anything.
If our image does not always match the description exactly, please don't be too
surprised. Plants can look different in different gardens due to PH or other variances. If
you lived in Florida instead of Maine you might look different too!
I apologize for any errors on these pages. Please let us know of any you find.I am not a
professional web designer by any stretch of the imagination and suspect I may have a
few typos and mistakes on them. Thanks!

TESTIMONIALS
"I just had to write to tell you how well the plants you sent are doing.
They never missed a beat, never sulked or dwindled as so often happens
with plants from the deep south. One already has a second fan. They
took off growing as well or better than any plants I can recall."-Fran
Harding, Forestlake Gardens,Virginia
"Plant arrived today (Monday) in SUPERB condition. You need to give me an
education on how to properly grow Daylilies."-Bob Carr,Ocala,FL
"These are the best looking flowers we have received this whole year and we
have received a lot of them!!!! The roots were still moist and the top had not
yellowed at all. This is how I hope my flowers arrive looking but I know, as I
said from experience, that most folks do not go to this much trouble. We
really appreciate it"
-Janis Wesson,Crossett,AR
"How many ways can I say fantastic?"-Pat Hargis,South Berwick,ME
"they did arrive yesterday……..all in mint condition.
Quality of the plants is excellent.I very much appreciate the extra's you have
added."-Gerrit Snoek--The Netherlands

Landscapers and Mass Plantings-We have thousands of seedlings from
our hybridizing efforts that are field grown and available for sale. These are northern
hardy plants and ideal for filling in large areas. Daylilies are excellent for erosion
control and bank stabilization. These are available for $.50 per plant. As an example,a
clump with 5 fans would be $2.50.Discounts available for orders of 250 or more.
Mixed colors and blooming times.

The image to the left is of a

not be $.50 but $4.00--what a
deal!
