Pollies Day Lilies
I've had some Hemerocallis from this nursery and her range is simply
amazing. I'm now in love with Jen Melon and Caramba. So while I emphasise it is nothing to do with us, I do recommend www.polliesdaylilies.co.uk/‎ -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

So while I emphasise it is nothing to do with us, I do recommend www.polliesdaylilies.co.uk/? I'll second that. For some reason, 6 of 7 mature day lilies decided to expire over the winter, despite being well-suited to the soil here and the remaining one flowering its socks off (and still at it). As well as having a fantastic range, Pollie is more than ready to answer questions and offer advice. Whilst I've decided not to risk replanting before the spring, I've been going through her catalogue and am finding it really difficult to pare down the selection to just half-a-dozen or so for which I have room. Maybe I'll have to resort to giving her a blank cheque and letting her pick the six! Strange, I have a mature clump of day lilies that every year for at least 10 years has flowered well, this year not one flower spike. I'll have to give it a good talking to and tell it another blank year and it's out. David @a sunny side of Swansea Bay, after a totally wet day yesterday. |

One of our Dahlias didn't appear this year and all the others are flowering as if on steroids! -- Sacha South Devon |

I have a fondness for daylilies, and have masses of them in NJ, but the Scottish garden needs loads more. |

She's extremely helpful and as it's a smallish,family run nursery, you get that nice personal service, too. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

Saw a pic last year - beautiful flower form and as close to pure white as it gets. Can't remember the name but when I enquire, Pollie always does (and seems to remember me too!) I can't remember the name either but is it a 'frilly' one? -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |
