We got 5 shipments of daylilies today. It is like Christmas! I did not have time to take pictures but will try to tomorrow and post them. I enjoy taking the wrappings off each daylily and inspecting each one. Several arrived with scapes intact, and some had scapes that had been cut for packaging. We are just in awe at the wonderful daylilies, both ordered and gifts, that we have received.

Fred donated the following intros for our Region 5 Spring Meeting June 2014 and 2015 National:

All roots are soaking in water and SuperThrive. I will plant Friday and/or pot up for planting soon. After tomorrow night we do not have freezing temperatures in the forecast for the next 7 days. Maybe spring is near in NW GA.
