I live in Kissimmee and I find that the FL grown do best for me. I've received nice plants from Dan Hansen of Lady Bug Daylilies, the Pierces of Floyd Cove, the Trimmers of Watermill Gardens and Phil and Pina Reily also Nicole Devito of Nicoles Daylilies, Luddy Lambertson of Art Gallery Gardens, just do a web search for FL daylily growers in case I missed any. I have had no problems on getting wrong plants from any of these growers and if I ever did I'm sure they would set it right.

I've ordered from them twice without any problems (no wrong plants) and have a third order coming this year. Like everyone else says, they are very nice to do business with. My experience has usually been that most sellers are horrified when they make a mistake...but mistakes can happen. Most, will replace the plant, especially if you send them a picture of what you received, without any problem. It can be like a 'Bank Error in Your Favor'...as I like to say! Sometimes, though, they may be sold out or the plant is no longer available...in which case, they would either send your money back, give you a credit or let you choose something else. Far and away, most daylily sellers are wonderful people to deal with. Another good seller that is on another thread is Patron Gardens. Once, one of my plants was forgotten (left out of the box) and I simply called...the plant was sent along with another bonus plant (which was a really cute daylily). When I had one die (an expensive one), they refunded my money promptly. You can't beat that. I have a situation this year that will probably test all this. A seller I bought a plant from...two years ago...I think sent me a mixed up plant. The plant did not bloom the first year and last year, when it bloomed...it was like close, but not the cultivar. I know, because I saw the plant in several gardens and there were distinct differences from mine. Anyway, I'm waiting until this year and hope to get a good picture of it and start a conversation with the seller (off the LA)...we shall see. In some of those cases, it can turn out that the seller thought they had the correct plant...That's why it is a good thing to establish relationships with the people you buy from (not always possible)...There is a degree of trust that builds and they view you as a friend, too. In this case, I think I only bought the one year from this seller, so I'll just see what happens. Oh yeah. Always ask for blooming size fans. That's what the best sellers send, anyway...but not everyone does. That way, you have a pretty good chance of first year blooms. There will still be some that might not (depending where they came from and where they were in their cycle of growth when dug up and sent to you), but most will...if you get blooming size fans. I have learned this the hard way! Do not assume, especially on the LA, that everyone sells blooming size fans. If it doesn't say, ask...unless you have gotten to know the seller well and have that trust I mentioned earlier. Good luck and happy buying!

I bought from Anna and Dee Littleton three years ago and was very pleased with the plants I received. Debra

Morning all, and HAPPY SPRING!!!!!! Yet another awesome weekend here in the TN valley with sun and mid-sixties! Y'all come down south and stay a spell, LOL! Loving the pics, keep them coming. I should have my secret pal's box ready to be shipped today! Also, those who are wanting Hellebore seedlings, I should have them dug and ready too. I'll give you a hint on who my secret pal is...s/he does NOT live in Tennessee :). Hi Cody! I am an orchid novice, so I am feeling out what grows best for me in my home conditions. I have had a phal and a dend/phal NOIDs for around 18 months and have been unable to get them to rebloom. I also have: Onc Dgmra. Winter Wonderland 'White Fairy' New ones on Friday: Ascda. Pralor 'Barbara Elmore' HCC/AOS that has red/orange bloom Epiden. 'Pixie Princess' H&R Epi. Veitchii Bulbophyllum pulchellum 'El' So, you see, I am kind of all over the place. The epi is in spike and I am excited!!! Jean, bird-bird looks great contrasting with your red walls! Beautiful bird! Dawn, you have a cutie baby bird too! I want a bird!!!! Trops, yes, I do have the plant that shoots seeds, Dorstenia. I do have Stuttgart, but I just got it last year, many thanks to both Marea and Susan for it! If it multiplies well, I would be happy to share. Thanks for the congrats on my weight loss. Add another pound to that! Or, should I say subtract another pound from me, LOL! I am eating normally now, just not sugar. I even bought a big bag of M&M's for my pal and it didn't call out my name. I have been eating Blue Bunny ice cream, the carb-free or sugar free varieties and I can't tell. I ate peanut brittle ice cream last night, YUM! OK, better get busy. I have a "Yeah, I'll get too it" list a mile long for today. I have been up for 4 hours already and have gotten zip done. Y'all have a wonderful day full of love, laughs, and sunshine! Life is good... ~ Canna
