No daylilies for me! I am so not a daylily person. I'm not even sure I'm a lily person. I like the way they look but I've told Mom not to get bouquets from the store with lilies because I sneeze like crazy. But I think those are the Asian variety. The only specific plant shows I've been to are orchids, African Violets, and bromeliads. I think orchid people are the craziest...err...most intense. But looking at all the daylily stuff on here they might give the orchid folks a real challenge.
And speaking of shows...everyone, we have a new feature on ATP. It's the Gardening Calender of Events. On the left menu, click "Goodies" and then click "Gardening Calender of Events". It's up to us to add things to it. So if you know of any plant shows or sales in your area (especially butterfly plants!) go ahead and add the event. As a Floridian, I just want your tourist dollars!
But seriously, it's a good resource to have but it will only be as good as we make it. It's a great way to advertise your area, too. A lot of us don't like to shop the big box stores for various reasons (like pesticides killing our caterpillars) so native plant sales can be a great alternative. And you can usually find more varied plants than you do at the big box stores. So explore the new calender and then add to it!
