Lucky you I had the pleasure of meeting Mark when he was a guest speaker at our regional meeting, he gives a excellent presentation and is a pretty funny guy.

I have always wanted to visit there but alas, It's too far from me . But I often visit the web site!! Ellie

Last year on Regional tour we had a long morning there, and I probably didn't even get through half of the rows of plants. That is a pretty amazing place.

Like Ellie, I would love to go, but it is a little bit far for me.

any pics alemeda? :)

I bought 9 seedlings - 3 were Mark's from this year. My photos arent great.....they are more beautiful in person. Got them all potted up and in the shade - will plant them in the garden in the fall. I love the Carpenter seedlings - esp. the lavenders. I got 3 lavenders - the photos didnt do them justice. I am going to Jack's home this Saturday to see his diploids. Last year I bought My Cup Overflows - a HUGE white/cream. It bloomed yesterday and was magnificent - biggest lily I have ever seen that wasnt a spider. I crossed it with Cosmic Kaleidoscope - that should be an interesting cross! I rarely buy named varieties at Carpenters - the seedlings are so fascinating and they are one of a kind. "Pink Parade", the first photo [I give them all names] came from Mark's first bunch of seedlings - it is actually pink petals with a purple eyezone - very interesting! The 2nd photo, "Night Magic", is also one of Mark's first seedlings. The big melon is [Ann Yarbrough x Magical Melody].

Those are beautiful.
Hope to visit sometime, since it could be a day trip for me.

I love Carpenter daylilies and have several here. Mark is always a pleasure to do business with.

Your very lucky to have seen their farm. Too far for me too so I have to visit through everyones photos. :-)

Those are beautiful! Great seedlings :)

I love the pink seedling and the patterned eyes!

Used to go every year but haven't been able to make the trip since Mark took over -- maybe next year. Meanwhile, my yard is full of beautiful named Carpenter and Bomar cultivars as well as wonderful seedlings. Thanks, Jack and Josie!
