Well, Ann (Farmerbell) and I both sell seeds to fund our addictions, so therefore I can afford new ones. Sometimes she and I trade fans also, but the problem with this is, we usually like and buy the same ones, so whats to trade LOL.
I have a bigger order than usual from Floyd Cove this year. They have so many blue ones this year. I also ordered Xylophone Jazz, I am waiting to receive it in the spring. They are the best to buy from, always sending huge fans and usually double fans of new introductions. They don't send a bonus plant for everyone you buy, they send about 20% in bonus plants, but they usually send new intros if you order new ones. A box from them is like Christmas here.

I'm with you, Dot. I also ordered XYLOPHONE JAZZ in September, and they sent it right away so mine is already potted up and looking very happy. We seem to like the same new daylilies! And I've been so pleased with my Floyd Cove orders this year -- Karen is a dream to work with, and the plants they send are really fantastic!

Betty,
I noticed you are standing in an iris garden. I also grow bearded irises, I had them before my daylilies. Here is a picture of my iris bed in the back yard.
