As part of the Educational Classification for a daylily show, I put together a video presentation on daylilies to introduce those attending the show to the world of daylilies. When Huey and I decided we wanted to add some information for those new to daylilies to our website, it was just easier to convert the Powerpoint slides used in that presentation to jpeg pictures than start all over. We have taken some of those slides and placed them on these pages. For that reason, some of the type faces may look different and the images will be slow to load. We couldn't use all the slides since we had "borrowed" (with permission) some of the images from the AHS website so there are some things not yet represented by a picture. During the course of this year we will be working on these pages and trying to collect more pictures.
These pages will cover a little about daylilies and their parts. Also included are some pages on how to plant and how to divide. As with anything, everyone may do things in a different or favorite way...the planting and dividing is just how we do it.

We hope that if your are new to daylilies these pages help explain the what and how and when you are finished you will have a better understanding of the "why" we in daylilies can get so addicted to them!

Never hesitate to ask any "daylily people" if you have any questions about daylilies...we all just love to talk daylilies.

If you are interested in daylilies, I urge you to join The American Hemerocallis Society and/or a local daylily club. For more information both on the AHS and contacts for local clubs, please visit the AHS website  www.daylilies.org.
Daylilies come in all different sizes, colors as well as many different forms: singles, doubles, spiders, unusual forms and polytepals. Below is a quick trip through the different kinds of daylilies with pictures...
