2010 price list- 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 $10.00 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 now charges for a phytosanitary inspection. We therefore
now require a $25 for this service. 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 (made out to Richard Howard), or PayPal. International priority
mail to Europe takes about a week and costs $40-50 a box. UPS seems to work best for
Canada. UPS ground is very reasonable. We will ship via any means you wish. We have
found that cutting back the foliage significantly(1-2" left),and trimming the roots seems to
work best for global shipping but will pack them any way you wish.
Minimum USA order is $40.We will ship from April 15--Oct.1, weather dependent. We
will normally ship to USA addresses via priority mail on a Mon.,Tues, or Sat. Every
attempt will be made to accommodate your desired shipping date . Some newer varieties
are in the greenhouse for hybridizing purposes. They will not be ready to divide and
ship until later in the season, and are noted as "Fall". We include bonus plants with all
orders. This may mean extra fans of the cultivar you have ordered or of one of our choice.
If you ask for specific bonuses we will try to accommodate you.
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!If you want to use an image--ask first--it may not be mine
to give permission!

have taken a few liberties on my list and used the "UFO" tag on a few that may not meet
the strict AHS criteria which states that three petals or sepals must consistently exhibit the
pinching,cascading, or other specific trait as defined by AHS.

Plant size
This is a sensitive topic among many daylily collectors—me included .In addition
to other factors (including light, water and nutrition) daylilies need to reach a
certain threshold size to bloom. It is important to realize that for different
daylilies this threshold size varies. Many spiders and UFO’s naturally make
smaller plants. Likewise for many of the small diploid rebloomers like Stella.De
Oro.
If you are hybridizing, how soon a daylily blooms can become more important. It
is frustrating to watch others selling seeds for a good price from new
introductions while the $250 plant you received was so small it will not bloom
until next year. I have had problems with certain growers/hybridizers who
consistently send small plants. I will no longer order from them.
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. Having said that, we are not perfect. 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.
Newer introductions are grown in our greenhouse. Because of the greenhouse we
are often able to receive new introductions the fall/winter prior to release. This
allows for a longer growing time and a better size for our customers when we sell
them.
We occasionally have problems with some Southern bred plants that struggle
here in Zone 6. In those cases the plants may be smaller than usual .We will try
to identify these before we send your order.
Most of what I grow is in pots. 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.
Feel free to e-mail us if you have any questions about the above.

If you wonder why some daylilies cost so much, click here.
I have included some 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.
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
"Of all the ones that I ordered and traded last spring and summer, yours were the
biggest and the best, I just want to know how soon you will be taking orders for
2010?? Thanks"--Bev Scott, Nilwood, Illinois
"..the plants I received from you last season did very well. Everything grew like
gangbusters"--Rex Beissel, Maine

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 $5 per clump(3-10 fans). Mixed colors and blooming
times.I cannot guarantee what color on any of these will be if you get them when not in
bloom
