14 years ago

Well, you did it! You kept telling me to buy something and I'll feel better so I did!

I never thought I'd buy from Maryott's because most are so expensive there, but I found some great deals and the bonus one this week was what sealed the deal!

If anyone has any of these, please share share your own pic!

Here are pics from their website of what I ordered. I can't wait to get them and see them bloom next year!!!

LORD OF RICHES (bogo - got 4 fans for the price of 2)

PATSY CARPENTER (bogo again!) I love the polychrome ones!

SONG WRITER (I wanted an EE one!)

and.... their bonus plant this week for spending at least $50 is....

ANNABELLE'S BLUSH

Looks like you'll be getting some gorgeous daylilies and from what I hear you'll be getting some very generous bonuses in addition. Let us know what you think when your order arrives. I love it when my daylily orders arrive and I see what goodies are in the box.

You will be thrilled when the order arrives. Maryotts sends top quality and lots of fans and lots of bonus plants. Ordering from Maryotts is well worth it.

A few thoughts: I had some rust starting to show up on my plants this spring, and I had the same conversation with Bill Maryott. Cabrio is expensive and only sold in a gigantic container...but you might find that your local daylily club buys the fungicides and shares the cost among the members. Anyway, previously I had been treating mine with a less effective fungicide based on some older studies published online. When I started seeing rust, I cut back the infected and adjacent leaves, and within a couple weeks I started with the Cabrio, and I'm going to alternate with propiconazole (which I found at a local garden store). It seems to be working. I don't know how bad your rust was, but there are ways to bring a plant back from it. I can imagine it was a daunting idea to try to do something with your ~150 plants, though. Also, you can get rust even if you only buy from rust-free vendors. Where I live, there are daylilies all around the neighborhood, so it only takes one person's plant to spread it to everyone. Be proactive and treat preventatively. Hopefully it will work! Good luck!

Nat, I do indeed grow Pope John Paul II and a few other hybrid teas. All hybrid teas in our climate will die back to only a few inches (or to the mulch line if you mound the base with soil or mulch). I used to grow more hybrid teas but have gotten tired of the winter dieback so I only kept a few, and PJP is one that I just had to keep because of the fragrance and sheer beauty of those pristine white blooms. Even though it gets pruned back to only a few inches tall in the spring, it rallys and will come back to bloom and be lovely all summer. My advice is to mound up some soil around the base of it to about a foot in the late fall. Next spring you will find that the top of it will be all brown and dead, but once you remove the soil from around it in the spring you should find some green, live cane. Prune it back to that green cane and it will sprout new growth that will produce flowers later. Most of my roses, with the exception of the old once-bloomers and rugosas (and a few Canadian-bred roses) will have quite a bit of dieback, but so long as there is some green cane, no matter how little, your rose will come back. Make sure you don't remove the winter protection until the ground and temps warm up fairly consistently (usually late April to early May here). Ownroot roses will come back even if the plant appears brown to the ground, because they come back from their roots. But I grow mostly grafted here because ownroots struggle in our climate, and I haven't lost a rose to winter yet. I've learned to accept the fact that in zone 4, most roses have to be pruned back fairly drastically in the spring. But no one would think by looking at them all in bloom in June that they ever had a 'haircut'....they grow rapidly and the pruning really stimulates blooming. Take care, Celeste

Can you ID my NoID? (maybe the 1st of the season)
Q

If it's Francee, it's small, but I've only had it since last May. So, we may be looking at an immature Francee. If so, it really loves my house, as usually, Francee is supposed to have moderate growth. It's probably not Green Gold, as GG is supposed to come up with yellow edges. this one is white. Allan P. McConnell does not have a glacous (sp?) underside, this one does. I don't remember if it's fragrant. We'll see in August. When you try to ID one, you're struck by how many possibilites there are. With 4,000 known varieties, how many unknown varieties are there? Thanks guys, it makes this one more interesting. bkay

Just hasn't been a great year for daylilies for me. They have bloomed pretty well, especially considering the June drought. Still, we've gotten pretty steady rain since early July. I haven't gotten as much rebloom as I expected, and daylilies haven't increased like I had hoped. Some of my favorites I had hoped to see lots of increase, like Clown Parade & Hello Heartstrings. Nice healthy big fans, but no new fans. They will probably take off nicely next year though. I've been moving iris like mad in the new beds I made for them. Not quite finished yet, but just 2 or 3 left to move that I forgot earlier. I've been moving daylilies around too. Just have to decide which ones I like the least to move down to death row :)

Darn it, I meant to put PATSY CARPENTER on my order last week and forgot! When I ordered, the freebie was RODELINDA, but I asked him to change it to ANNABELLE'S BLUSH instead.

Make sure to let us know when you get your present. You've got some nice daylilies coming.

What? I'll have one your don't have? Impossible! This order brings my total to about 80 daylilies.

I don't think Maryott's is expensive because I really believe you get what you pay for. The reason he seem to cost more is because he carries mostly newer daylilies. I have one that is getting ready to bloom but on one of my catch up threads is a picture of one I got from him the middle of June. Junzi. I think you made some good choices and you won't be disappointed with your order...Ellie

Hi Natanya,

You just can't go wrong by getting daylilies from Maryott's. I have Song Writer - you will love it! You really get your money's worth when you get them at this source.

It just seems like ANNABELLE'S BLUSH has been the weekly special for a long time now and hasn't changed. It is a very pretty one, though.

I just LOVE Maryott's. They are my top supplier for the past couple years....almost my only supplier other than a few auction wins. Like someone said above, they carry a lot of the newer daylilys and that is reflected in what the prices are. Their daylilys are huge and healthy, plus they send unbelievable bonus'. Opening their box of daylilys is like Christmas morning when I was a child. They send great bonus' too.

I ordered Song writer too. Can't wait to see it bloom, may have to wait till next summer though because I just planted it a couple weeks ago. The Shores Of Times I ordered from Maryott's has 2 scapes coming up so I will get blooms on that this summer. I can't wait (that was a BOGO).

Not only are their daylilys awesome, but Bill and Marilyn are top customer service people and really nice too.

My 1st Maryott's order! Thanks to all of you!
