Well my name is Parker and Parker Gardens is good enough for me. I don't really have that many gardens. I have raised iris gardens and have had them for many years. There was really no room for more gardens, when I started growing daylilies. So my daylilies just grow in big pots all over the place. I am presently planning to put my new ones in the middle of the grass in the back yard, because it is the only sunny place left out there. I refuse to grow my expensive daylilies out front, too easy to steal when they are in pots. The front yard has cheaper ones out there. I have a city lot.

I do have a couple of pictures of my irises that say Parker Gardens on them.

Thanks so much for posting the pictures of the shagbark trees.

A place for pots, an old tree stump, I sure miss my bald cypress that was there.
