Favorite daylilly sources?
 

I need to find a daylilly called "Hyperion" for next season. Variety aside,
can anyone recommend a source or two for daylillies? Someone you've found to
be dependable?

I'd head to Oakes or Olallie for Hyperion.

Sam Hill Gardens in Malcolm, NE carries Hyperion

http://www.samhillgardens.com/

They start taking orders in April. I've purchased both bare root divisions
and potted plants from them and have never been disappointed.

Have you tried a Google search? 'Hyperion' is a classic and should be
available through most mail order vendors, of which there are dozens that
specialize in daylilies. B&D Lilies, Oakes Daylilies, Daylily Paradise,
etc. Do a check with the Plants by Mail FAQ to confirm dependability and
customer service. FWIW, 'Hyperion' is common enough that it should be
available in local garden centers and nurseries in season, as well.

I'm having no trouble finding that variety. But, after reading a few horror
stories here about certain dealers shipping mislabeled plants, I'm looking
for recommendations on specific companies.

I have to recommend Daylily.Net at http://daylily.net

Here you will find links to over 100 daylily specialty nurseries and I
personally know owners of the the majority of them. I have also conducted
business with each one of them.

The newest site to be update from the Daylily.Net membership is Christies'
Daylilies at http://dixondelights.com and you will find some remarkabley low
prices for fantastic cultivars.

If you wish to be notified whenever a new site or an updated member site of
Daylily.Net occurs then sign up for the free email bulletin at the bottom of
the Daylily.Net homepage (http://daylily.net).

Jimminy! A company that just sells Daylillies and nothing else? I
can't believe it. Is there THAT big a market for them?

Haven't you ever pulled off a country road to buy corn from someone who
apparently grows and sells just corn? :-)

Have a look at http://www.beachwooddaylily.com/

Being in Canada, it is probably too much hassle to order from them if you are
in the States, but the picture gallery and infomation may be useful. Great
people, too.

It's a big country.

Buying local is better than mail order, you can get bigger roots with
more buds. I think tissue cultured daylilies are just a bad as
mislabeled, so check if the growers sell those.

I always try to do that. It's getting harder, though, unless one wants to
drive all over the county. Why? Because even some of the best nurseries have
been afflicted with teenage retail syndrome: The counter help has no
initiative, no common sense, and no manners. So, calling on the phone means
being put on hold and forgotten. Used to be you could call these places and
get an adult who, if busy, would take your name & number and call you back
about whatever you were looking for, but no more.

OK...I'm done bitching.
