My garden is Earlybird Daylilies located in Garden City, Kansas (way out west). I am about an hour's drive from Colorado and 1 1/2 hours from Oklahoma. Very harsh conditions here and the varieties I grow have to be tough to survive. I grow about 1900 varieties plus several thousand seedlings that are under evaluation. My website is www.earlybirddaylilies.com
My 'claim to fame' is that I have the entire works of the late Frank Kropf plus several of his seedlings that I am introducing for him. Frank specialized in layered (hose-in-hose) doubles. This is his ZADA MAE.

I would like to recommend buying from Robin. She sends great looking nice green healthy plants, bonus plants and those prices are rock bottom. If your looking for a great selection and don't want to spend too much, you can find great daylilies here. Plus if they grow for Robin in the conditions there, they should grow just about anywhere!

Zada Mae is one of my all-time favorites. Makes a beautiful clump and seems to bloom forever. It often has 4-5 blooms (well spaced) on a scape open at once, yet it goes for 6 weeks or more. It is a bud builder that will start the season with 22 buds and when it is done it will have as many as 45 bud scars! Often reblooms if we get decent weather. The color is a vibrant ripe cantaloupe. It is always layered and always double. Tough as nails too! I HIGHLY recommend it!
