Hello, from SC! I am having a nice time and would like to visit Brown's Ferry Daylilies while staying at Garden City Beach. I sure wish it was during bloom season. Does anyone grow GARDEN CITY BEACH or others Douglas?
BLACK MINGO?

Thanks,
Teresa

I have a couple of Heidi's new dips -- DANCE WITH SOMEBODY and DATING A ROYAL, and I really like them. And I also have BROWNS FERRY SUNLIGHT, which I love as a garden plant -- very bright yellow and really cheerful. And it really is too bad you're there at this time of year -- but maybe something will be reblooming just for you...

I used to know Heidi when she was a fellow member of the Greater Cincinnati Daylily-Hosta Society.

She's nice and friendly! Thumbs up

I don't have any of the Douglas daylilies.

Well, I finally reached Heidi and she was going to be at the garden this morning. I was excited to meet her. She is very friendly and helpful. I chose BLACK MINGO and GARDEN CITY BEACH. Both of those are Douglas intros. We are staying at Garden City Beach so I thought it would be a nice keepsake. She also had CARNIVAL IN MEXICO which I have been wanting to add.

Thank you, Marilyn

I would have loved to added PAPA GOOSE to the list, but it is still a bit high for me. If I had a truck to drive back home, I am sure more dls would have been purchased. It will be hard to leave tomorrow with such nice sunrises and sunsets. They are just beautiful!

I photographed her garden when the Nationals were in Cincinnati, it was real nice. I do remember she had an all white themed bed and saw several gorgeous white daylilies.

I have more pics to post later of Browns Ferry Garden. The plants all looked very healthy. I may be sending a order this Spring because we didn't have enough room with all the luggage to purchase more than 3 pots. We are stopping in the mountains tonight, thankfully tomorrow it will only be about 6 more hrs of driving. Check back later, nite.
