It was a pleasure to order. This is the daylily site of Linda Michaels and she simply has a great sense of humor. She also sells on the LA, but I had so many of her own intros on my wish list I just went directly to her website in order to get it done once. They arrived and looked great, especially considering that she managed to get them dug and shipped between cold spells bringing snow. I appreciate that kind of effort. A third of the order ended up being bonus plants. It was a small order, but the bonus did reduce the old wish list a little :).
We keep growing, because ATP is where all the excitement is these days! Check out these numbers from last week:
