Welcome to my daylily sale site. 2008 passed in a flash and there were many bright spots both in the garden and out. 2009 will see us rejuvenating many of the daylily beds. There were exciting new blooms to see as well as some that we didn’t see, which is a sure sign that it is time to divide. All in all I have found almost 100 that I can sell tho not without regrets. But gardens are like closets....if something comes in, something must go, at least that`s the theory.
Some may already know me from last year but for the rest my husband Jack and I (Sherry) live in south western Alberta, in zone 3b. We have repeated freeze thaw cycles here and a lot of wind which pretty much takes most of our snow away. I do not mulch but I do leave the foliage on for the winter. These are VERY hardy plants We have a lot of deer and they eat all around my daylilies but leave them alone.
If you email me MAKE SURE you are using a telus.net address. I did send out many emails which unfortunatly had a faulty email address that ended in telus.ca This is resulting in undeliverable emails to me. I do prefer email but if you have trouble getting thru, do not hesitate to phone me. All contact info is on the SHIPPING AND HANDLING page. To navigate use the 3 pages in the black header above the red title word DAYLILIES.
THE CORRECT ADDRESS IS jacknsherry@telus.net
