This will be the 12th year that the Canning Daylily Gardens has produced an on-line catalogue. We hope you will enjoy the wide selection of cultivars that we have to offer in 2013. Almost 30% of the cultivars listed in this year's catalogue are being offered, by us, for the first time. Many of the cultivars that we are offering are in limited supply. An "L" before a cultivar's name indicates that the number is quite small. All of the plants are offered as double fans, unless otherwise indicated ("S" = single fan), and offered on a first-come first-serve basis.
Due to the large number of new plants we have added to the garden, we are making room by cutting back in the volume of some plants we have carried for years. Hence the sale of small clumps (code "C") of certain varieties.
All of our plants are field grown; we do not sell tissue cultured plants. All of our plants are guaranteed to be true to name. With the large number of plants being offered, occasionally a labeling mistake does occur. If your purchased plant does not bloom true, please keep the plant you bought, but return to the garden and pick up the correct one.
We live in a 5b climate zone. Our plants are guaranteed to survive zone 5b winter conditions. If you live in a colder climate zone, you might want to be more selective when choosing some evergreen cultivars.
