    I'm new to this group, so I hope I'm doing this right.
    My father worked for the Russell Daylily Farm in Spring, Tx., when he was a little boy. The Russell family named a lily after my grandfather, Lee Higgins.
    I am trying to locate anyone with this plant that would be willing to bless our family with this treasure.
    My grandfather has passed away, but I would love to purchase this treasure for my parents and grandmother.
    Thank you in advance,
    Ginger
    Montgomery, tx
