Welcome to Olallie Daylily Gardens
May 2, 2008
We began shipping April 28 even though it was wet and cold. Fine for daylilies but not so much fun for people. Orders placed this week will probably go out the week of May 19. That is plenty of time to plant and still get good blooms from plants.

I have begun updating our species page and there is lots of new stuff on my species blog.

The rain we've had has greened everything up beautifully! It looks to be a great season.

The Complete Palette of Daylily Choices: Unique, Special and
Choice
The daylilies
we offer are truly unique to the daylily world, most are available
exclusively from the collection of Dr. George
Darrow.
Who We Are:
We are longtime organic growers who are continuing the work of Dr.
George Darrow. We offer a large selection of daylilies that provides a
complete pallette of daylily possibilities in an easy-to-use framework.
Our approach simplifies your search for the right daylily for your
garden. We also supply a wealth of information to educate you the
grower as to how best select and grow daylilies.
We grow well over 2500 varieties of daylilies and are breeding new
possibilities by the hundreds every year. We select plants based on
their hardiness, vigor and performance.
We Love Visitors!
A Day in the Country
The daylilies blooming season runs from June through September. This
map should help guide you through the winding Vermont roads. If you are
coming and want to pick up a large order, please call in advance, so we
can have it ready when you get here. There are many other daylilies to
see which are not available through the catalog.
We also maintain over four hundred high bush blueberries. Pick your
own from mid July through August. They're organic and delicious.
Visitors are welcome to stroll the fields, pick blueberries, and
explore.
The main six-acre field brims with daylilies. Grass paths meander
through the beds of flowers. Here, the children run and play with our
three Border Collies and visitors can wander. Bring a picnic, there are
picnic tables and benches for your use.
We plant, grow, dig and pack them by hand so you get fresh, hardy,
and quality plants we'll ship them the same day they were dug. If
you're coming to see for yourself, we'll dig them while you wait (even
in the rain)!
Buy from us because...
Our plants are field grown in organic compost-enriched soils. The daylilies are proven hardy in our ruggedcold climate, with no protective mulch, no chemical sprays. We give them only water, natural fertilizers, and hand weeding.
While originating in maryland,, our VT daylilies have adapted to the harsh Vermont winter with no protection, making them well suited to most regions.
You can choose from two large sizes of freshly dug, hand rinsed and carefully packed plants.
Planting instructions are sent for easy care and cultivation.
You'll get the individual attention of a small family farm, because we hope you'll tell your friends about us.
Daylilies live virtually forever. So to tha end, invest wisely in the future of your garden.
Choose northern grown farm raised daylilies with the heritage of Darrow daylilies.
