Oh yum, that first link of Michele's shows a gorgeous daylily flower arrangement in vase that I just love - lucky you if you get to see some like that! Looks like the Hosta-Daylily group's site, in the second link, has a vibrant and very active number of enthusiasts.
Even if someone doesn't happen to bring Thundercat to the show, you may find someone who has it "back at home" to sell, or knows someone else who does. Could be a neat way to add on some local garden visits? We'll cross our fingers that you end up finding it to fill that spot in very soon.
