Dear Friends and Fellow Gardeners,

After two years of severe drought, our 2009 growing season was an absolute joy. It rained almost every other day, and our daylilies responded accordingly. Growth and increase were excellent (which will help allow us to continue shipping you huge multiple fan units big enough to bloom the first season), and the flowers were incredible.

Great swaths of gorgeous blooms reminded us why we grow daylilies, and of the marvelous achievements daylily hybridizers have made — clearer colors, eyes and edges in myriad combinations, a great range of sizes (from 2" to 10"), a range of styles from perfectly round to spiders, better rebloom in different colors, frills and ruffles, doubles of all sizes...

Daylilies are useful in so many ways, to brighten the landscape, to give your mailbox a proper sendoff, to surround the pool or to simply greet you with beauty as you step outside. But best of all, they'll give your spirit a lift! Treat yourself to some daylilies today, and add some beauty to your corner of the world.

Sincerely,
Stewart Oakes
