September 4 - Lost and Found Announcement

Upon returning home after last Saturday's sale, Verne Moore found that he had two extra plants : 'Behold the Heavens' and 'I See Stars'. They were not marked with a price (like they would have been, if they'd been from table sales). The rightful owner of these plants is asked to contact Verne directly or via the webmasters (webmaster@cvids.org). Thank you!

Message from Ken and Susie Messer

Ken and Susie are scaling down their daylily operation and would therefore like to sell some of the known cultivars and most of their seedlings at very good prices for nicely developed clumps. If anyone in the club is interested, please call or e-mail them. Their phone number and e-mail address are available via the webmasters.

Looking for Photos of Betty Miller's Daylily Introductions. Can you help, please?

The webmasters are working with Ann Cutts, daughter of Betty Miller,
