Shipping-- We normally ship domestically via priority mail which arrives in 2-3 days. We usually
ship on Mon,Tues, or Sat. The objective is not to have a plant arrive on the weekend so it might sit
in the PO until Monday. Shipping on Sat. is fine since the mail does move on weekends. As I
update this the Postal Service is making changes to its service that may affect Saturdays .Shipping
is $10.00 for one-three plants. Add $1 for each additional plant after three. All plants are dipped in
a fungicide or bleach solution before shipping.
International shipping.--We will ship to any country as long as their are no special
requirements. Our state now charges for a phytosanitary inspection. We therefore now
require a $25 for this service. It is a bit of a hassle to do the necessary paperwork and we require
a $250 min order internationally. We will not ship to any country that requires any special
permits from their agricultural jurisdiction. Payment in US funds only fir international
orders-check, money order (made out to Richard Howard), or PayPal (preferred). International
priority mail to Europe may take a week to ten days--sometimes longer . WE WILL NOT
GUARANTEE ANY PLANTS SENT OUT OF THE COUNTRY VIA PRIORITY MAIL.
International Priority Mail is about one-third the price of DHL or UPS, but tracking info is limited.
We will ship via any means you wish. We have found that cutting back the foliage
significantly(1-2" left),and trimming the roots seems to work best for global shipping but will pack
them any way you wish.
We have shipped to the following countries: Canada, France, Norway,United Kingdom, Latvia,
Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, Poland and Japan.
Images. Click on any daylily image to see a larger version. Images may be used only with the
express permission of Ctdaylily, LLC. Most photos were taken by me in my garden or greenhouse
with a point and shoot digital camera. I am not very good at photography so in most cases the
flowers are prettier than shown. Some images are used with the permission of others. I try to use
my own images because sometimes plants look different in one's garden than in the catalogs. If I
don't have an image, or if the image I have is not representative of how the flower really looks in
my garden I try to find one that I feel is appropriate. I believe every image I have used on this site
is with the permission of the image owner. If you see your image and I have somehow neglected to
ask your permission, please tell me and I will remove it. If you have an image of one I do not have,
please feel free to send it to me! If you want to use an image--ask first--it may not be mine to give
permission!

Additional order info
Your e-mail and our acknowledgement are the written record of your order. We will
sometimes send you back an excel file for larger orders. All are double fans (two plants-
may or not be attached) unless noted single (S) or clumps(3 fans min). I have tried to use
the year of introduction instead of the year of registration because I feel this has more
meaning for most buyers. Eureka uses the year of registration so you will see differences
in the listings accordingly.

LEGEND:
S=single fan-one plant
Clump=multiple fans-at least 3--maybe 4,5 or more
Disp=Display-not for sale now but probably will be in the future
Dor=dormant foliage habit(note-foliage habit is not an indicator of hardiness)
Ev=evergreen foliage habit
Sev=semi-evergreen foliage habit ( foliage partially recedes in winter)
Fall=not expected to be available until late summer or fall 2012
Disp=display only-inquire as to availability

Self=flower parts are all same color
Spider=a flower with petal length is at least 4 times its width
UFO=unusual form-simply put,spidery types with unusual looking petals or sepals-I may
have taken a few liberties on my list and used the "UFO" tag on a few that may not meet
the strict AHS criteria which states that three petals or sepals must consistently exhibit the
pinching,cascading, or other specific trait as defined by AHS.
Plant size/Guarantee
Size is a sensitive topic among many daylily collectors—me included.In addition to other
factors (including light, water and nutrition) daylilies need to reach a certain threshold size
to bloom. It is important to realize that for different daylilies this threshold size varies.
Many spiders and UFO’s naturally make smaller plants. Likewise for many of the small
diploid rebloomers like Stella.De Oro.
We believe that the plants we send are comparable in size and quality to most we have
received. Having said that, we are not perfect. The summers of 2010 and 2011 had
extreme heat and little rain at times and some plants we sent out were smaller than usual.
If you ever are unhappy with a plant we send you for any reason please let us know
and we will do whatever it takes to make it right.

If you wonder why some daylilies cost so much, click here.
I have included some images of scapes that I thought exhibited good plant habits-branching,bud
count,etc. Most of what I grow is in pots which can limit the branching etc. So you could expect
better performance than what I have.
If our image does not always match the description exactly, please don't be too surprised. Plants can
look different in different gardens due to PH or other variances. If you lived in Florida instead of
Maine you might look different too!
I apologize for any errors on these pages. Please let us know of any you find.I am not a professional
web designer by any stretch of the imagination and suspect I may have a few typos and mistakes on
them. Thanks!

TESTIMONIALS
"I just had to write to tell you how well the plants you sent are doing. They never
missed a beat, never sulked or dwindled as so often happens with plants from the deep
south. One already has a second fan. They took off growing as well or better than any
plants I can recall."-Fran Harding, Forestlake Gardens,Virginia
"Plant arrived today (Monday) in SUPERB condition. You need to give me an education on
how to properly grow Daylilies."-Bob Carr,Ocala,FL
"These are the best looking flowers we have received this whole year and we have received a
lot of them!!!! The roots were still moist and the top had not yellowed at all. This is how I
hope my flowers arrive looking but I know, as I said from experience, that most folks do not
go to this much trouble. We really appreciate it"

efforts that are field grown and available for sale. These are northern hardy plants and ideal for filling
