HOLD'N HEAVEN DAYLILIES
in the Beautiful Connecticut River Valley |
|
Located at the home of
Neal and Charmaine Rich in East Thetford, Vermont, this AHS Display
Garden was designed to showcase an constantly growing Daylily
collection. Holdn' Heaven is a unique place combining Formal, Cottage
and Garden Room styles with a touch of the unconventional and whimsical. The garden contains over 400 registered cultivars in mixed plantings with shrubs and perennials. The hybridizing beds contain another 100 registered cultivars and 4000 seedlings.
Hybridizing began in
2001 with Charmaine's interest in producing sculpted daylilies in colors other
than yellow. A fascination with the few pattern eyes available at that
time led to a pattern eye line as well. Other traits she looks for are Cold
Morning Openers (CMO), Early Morning Openers (EMO), Bud counts, Branching
and an easy care plant habit that looks good throughout the growing
season.
