The plants I got this year were shipped quite late, but they all bloomed. They were also on the smaller side, but that might well be the plants I ordered are just naturally small anyhow...? My own plants for comparison were monsters at that point. She did send a bonus plant, but it wasn't something I would grow, so I tossed it anyhow.

I've ordered from Petal Pushers a couple of times. DFs were small and on the brown side, but they all grew. Both times I got a single fan bonus; the second time she sent Quilt Patch, which has become a favorite.

I got a couple from there this year.
Both bloomed. I got no complaints.
Thumbs up
I would say some sell out fast so do not dilly-dally.

They tend to ship smallish fans and I think they get overwhelmed and don't always ship in a timely manner. That said, if I can't get the plant from another source I will purchase from there.

I've always been pleased with the plants I get from Petal Pushers. They are average size for northern grown plants. I've received plants from Elaine in both Spring and Fall, and they were nice and green with all four of my orders.

Again thanks so much for all the opinions! I decided to order the two varieties even though the fans probably will be small. do smaller fans necessarily mean that the daylilys won't perform well?

Not at all. It wasn't long before the small fans I received were thriving.
