Daylily Haul

FarawayFarmer
10 years ago

This is what my Ranger pickup looked like after our last visit to Wynn Daylilies in Jasper, Fl. There are about 40 two gallon pots in the bed. I could have put another ten in the extended cab, but didn't, due to budget considerations. (That took a LOT of will power).

Because so many of the plants were scaping and/or blooming, I planted them with the least amount of disturbance possible.

    Wow, that's pretty drool worthy! I'm also wondering what you got. :)

    The biggest plant I got on the Lily Auction this spring was from Wynn's and I will definitely be checking out their auctions whenever they are listing. Congratulations, those plants look great, and they should do really well for you. Avedon

    Here's a closeup of the plants. Mr. Wynn has the biggest and healthiest looking daylilies I've found anywhere. I don't know what his secret is.

    I do know that he digs up everything in his garden and divides it in the fall, so these plants have been in the pots less than a year.

    I would say that is some fantastic haul! Nice clumps and ready to plant as time permits. You must have had a lot of space to fill but it gives you an instant daylily garden. Great job!

    A lot of space? Yes. Ten acres.

    Really nice looking plants! I have a few that you got & I know you will be happy with them-Blue eyed butterfly, Fooled Me, All Fired Up, & I remember seeing some of the others pictured on the forum. You should have a beautiful daylily garden.

    Nice haul! So jealous of your daylily garden to be! Happy planting!

    I am particularly jealous that you have room for those daylilies (certainly not of all the work to plant them!) It must be very exciting to get all those big healthy plants.

    Those look beautiful!!! We have a daylily festival here at Oakes this weekend, can't talk anyone into going with me though :( That might be a good thing though, because it will save me some money!

    Wow, WOW! I have only seen the trunk of a van look like that once and it was one of my earlier hosta hauls. That is quite the new collection.
