Escape the Winter Blahs with some Daylily Eye Candy - January 14th, 2021

      Just because it’s cold and snowy outside doesn’t mean we have to let cabin fever get us down. So, let’s have a little escape to enjoy some daylily eye candy on January 14. No fancy or involved program. Just a bunch of pretty pictures to refresh our memories of sunshine, summer temps, and beautiful vistas of daylilies in bloom.

      Ginny Pearce, who has been hybridizing since 1996, had her best ever crop of seedlings bloom this last summer. She will share the most promising of those newest seedlings plus some other standouts to add a burst of color to your winter’s day during a Zoom presentation. Her more recent hybridizing efforts have evolved to include more tall Unusual Forms alongside her early love of round ruffled types. With a rainbow of colors from reds, purples, pinks, whites, bluish watermarks, big green throats, etc to be presented, members will be assured to see a wide variety of flowers. Come join her in a virtual garden visit to explore the pretty faces.
