Valley of the Daylilies

17 years ago

I placed my last order of the year to Valley of the Daylilies and WOW am I impressed. I received his Fall Sale brochure - several daylilies anywhere from 30 - 60% off - I just couldn't resist! My entire order (all plants on sale) arrived in a HUGE box - jammed full of excellent quality plants with extra, extra fans along with 2 bonus plants. One of the most generous I have purchased from. I am just so happy when I find an excellent seller! Check it out - Dan and VOTD goes high on my list to reorder from.

Gee,I sure didn't know there was so many places to buy daylilies.BUT I am new to them,just my second year with them.No one mentioned Gilbert Wild Nursery.I have ordered 5 or 6 DL's at a time 3 different times from them.First time I went in with two other people,and ordered 5 that was on sale, and twice I have ordered 6 at a time while they were on a sale,and I received very nice plants every time,plus a bonus plant.What I liked about it was they charge only 6.95 postage on what ever you order. That first order with two other people,was 18 plants and shipping was still 6.95 for them...well, just thought I would add my little 2 cents worth here :) Jean

LOTS and LOTS of irises at the sale!!!! Great selection! Many daylilies as well. I ended up spending $90 (considering that irises were going for $1-$2, I have a lot of work to do!). Still another day to go! Also, HVIDS will have an iris sale at Adam's Fairacre Farms in Poughkeepsie next Saturday, 8/14, as well! Joel

Sat Aug 6th was the best ever for tall bearded irises! There were many many varieties including newer ones, historics & rebloomers. Sat nite Jerry & friends dug even more so there were some different ones for Sunday. Sales for the weekend were an all time high! There were somewhat fewer median irises. There were many daylilies for sale, too. On Sat Aug 13th at Adams, many irises and daylilies were still available, but sales were a little slow, possibly because of the heat. The club were invited to have an information table at Adams big spring flower show. In this drought, my perennials other than irises are crispy, hopefully going dormant early not dying. The newly planted irises are holding on & I am hoping for some rebloom from established plants in a few weeks.

I bought a box full and like rockypug says they were big and healthy plants. I will definitely order from them next year.

Christine,
I placed my order end of August, but preset the delivery to arrive the week of Sept 11, as I travel frequently.
Plants arrived for me exactly as scheduled.
Hope this helps.

90% of my daylilies have come from VOTD, the owner Dan is the nicest guy in the world, and always very generous. If you ever get a chance to visit in person, you should, his collection and his hybrids are amazing!

I visited Valley of the Daylilies in July, 2004. You are right, Dan is a really nice person. I bought several older varieties from him and then he said he wanted to give me one. He looked at my wish list and gave me a small fan of Muscle and Blood. My husband calls it Blood and Guts. It is outstanding. It bloomed the next year and this summer it bloomed like crazy. Just beautiful!! I have divided it this fall and started another clump and gave some to a friend.

Hint, where it asks for substitutions or bonus plants, put in "your choice", you will not be sorry.
