Julia, shipping really depends on the growing environment the seller has. If I had a greenhouse or I had the frost covers like some I've seen then I could have shipped things out in Dec. or Jan. and the daylilies would be a good size. But with the daylilies out in the cold (then hot, then cold, then freezing, then hot) I really don't want to ship out until April. I will be shipping some in March because people have requested that, but they will be smaller. Some of the daylilies are big now (never shrank and the cold didn't affect them), but most are still on the smaller side and the dormants have only about 3"-5" of foliage.
