Dear Daylily Friends,

Boy these are difficult times to make a living. In spite of the economy we are still here. Thank you for all the orders you gave us last year. The plants look great and are growing well.

We are so grateful for the many nice compliments you gave us last year about our plants and service. You make our business successful and we appreciate each one of you. We work hard in order to send you the very best plants possible. However if for some reason there is a problem, please let us know so we can correct it.

Ridaught Daylily Farm is a commercial daylily operation that features an AHS Display Garden and commercial growing areas. More than 800 varieties of daylilies are grown on the farm. Many other garden plants add to the colorful display in the garden. There are water features on the property as well.

The display garden, commercial growing field and our home are located on five acres of rich, North Florida land. Visitors from garden clubs, daylily societies, and bus tours are welcomed into our garden each year.

We are active in Suwannee Valley Daylily Society and in Region 12 of American Hemerocallis Society (AHS). If you want to learn more about daylilies join a local daylily club and become a member of the American Hemerocallis Society. AHS publishes four journals each year that are full of good information. Visit the AHS website, www.daylilies.org, for more information.

Daylily rust is under control in our garden. Spraying is done on a weekly basis. Both a systemic and a contact fungicide are needed to keep the plants healthy. We will not ship any plants that show symptoms of rust or have had rust in the recent past. Every precaution is taken in order to send disease free plants. Ridaught Daylily Farm, Inc. cannot guarantee against daylily rust because it is air borne and can be introduced not only by the new plants that you bring into your garden but also in many other ways.

The web catalog is filled with color pictures, however the printed version does not have pictures and is a list of cultivars with descriptions and prices. We post sold out’s, new cultivars and pricing specials on the web as they occur. The website contains the most up to date information about availability. There are some short supply varieties listed on the web catalog that are not included in the printed list. The best way to place orders is via the website. E-mail is wonderful. We can respond to you quickly for confirmations and changes, so be sure to include your e-mail address if available.

We are sorry but we no longer accept credit cards and request that payment be made by check or money order and included with a printed copy of your order.

As you can see our prices are very competitive so many of the daylilies are in short supply. We can hold an order for up to 4 weeks without payment. After 4 weeks we may release the plants to our other customers. In order to prevent delays in delivery, payment must be received no later than two weeks prior to the scheduled shipping date.

Come visit us. Peak bloom season is mid May with bloom from April until September. A call may be in order to make sure we are in the garden.

Happy Gardening!
Jerome and Reba Ridaught
