I tried to order some from another vender and they emailed and said they didn't know if they had the ones I wanted but would get back w me, that was a week ago. Seems no one wants my money
Good grief it is the end of March already.

I think the lack of response is too bad, but in defense of Rockhaven they are located in West Newfield, Maine. As far as I've ever been able to tell, they only grow field/garden daylilies without a greenhouse. I just checked a weather site for that location. Tuesday they are supposed to have a high of 27F and a low of 6F. Of their 10 day forecast, 8 of the ten days potentially have some kind of frozen precipitation. I know I think Missouri is cool and wet from my perspective, but I sort of think of the Maine/Canada border as part of the frozen north . Therefore I wouldn't expect them to have a good perspective of my climate, and their forecast is NOT spring weather from my perspective. They probably lack the urgency that my 90+F degree weather engenders in my gardening mind. I've ordered from some of their near neighbors, but they couldn't even tell what was there to dig until April. I got the plants - very late for my conditions - and they have performed great despite arriving in close to triple digit temps. Now they are on a Texas time schedule .
