Sounds like a wonderful experience! The lady you ordered from was probably Karen Pierce... I know she sometimes has great prices on some special plants that they are looking to move to make room (I have seen her list some on one of the FB daylily sale groups). I bought Fried Green Tomatoes from her (Floyd Cove) last weekend via that FB group and the order arrived on Friday - nice plant and a great gift of one of their 2015 introductions, Venetian Pools. I don't know how expensive it is, but the two pictures of it I found online are beautiful. I looked at the pictures in the catalog that was included with my order - they have some spectacular looking introductions!
