2009 Welcome to Bluegrass Daylily Gardens…
A grand THANK YOU, to all our 2008 customers, who visited via our
website and gardens. We are especially
grateful to our loyal repeat customers.
For those of you that were able to visit the gardens in person, you
could readily see that we recovered from the hail damage of 2007.
New for 2009, are additional display-beds that were added toward the end of the season. This needed space will hold all of the new
plants we acquired during the summer. It
is always fun to see the rewards of your labor the following growing season.
If you have not had a chance to visit,
please do so this year, during our BLOOM FEST. This is a
good time to take freshly dug daylilies home with you. Bring a friend and
share!
Bluegrass
Daylily Gardens
grows nearly 500 tried and true oldies-but-goodies and newer cutting edge
daylilies by well-known hybridizers, adding more each year. We sell double fans
and try to be as generous as we can and include more, where possible. Some
varieties, especially the newer ones, are in limited supply, but we try to make
them available, as well.

 History:
Located in the Bluegrass Region of Kentucky near Shelbyville. We are a
family owned business that got started, like most, with the need to
divide plants and the desire to acquire more and fund our new
addiction. Our first purchase was a clump Raspberry Pixie from a dear
friend, Linda Casey. Jenny wanted flowers and color, I wanted foliage
and ground cover. We paid $40 and divided them to one and two fans,
then prayed that our expensive investment would not die.
Needless to say, they did great and we soon found ourselves searching
everywhere for more color and bigger blooms. Each year our tastes
changed from pinks to reds to purples and oranges. Doubles and spiders
started popping up too.
Bigger beds were made and old
ones expanded. Finally, we had what was the start of a nice garden that
family and friends enjoyed as much as we did. The next step was to put
out a sign and open the gardens for “business”.
We
are a licensed, state inspected garden, free of disease and daylily
rust. Plants are healthy and true to name. We offer quick and easy
payment through Paypal, if you would like to use a credit card. Of
course, checks and money orders are also accepted.
If
you would like to visit us while in Kentucky, please contact us a head
of time. We would not want to miss you. We would be happy to dig your
daylilies while you are here, weather permitting.
God Bless,
Chuck and Jenny Williams
