Step into my daylily garden

A smiling blonde woman in a colorful tie-dye shirt crouches on the grass, hugging a black Labrador retriever puppy with a purple flower in its mouth. She is wearing a yellow bracelet and silver sandals. The background features lush green plants and pink lilies.

Welcome to the online collection of daylilies that bring me joy!

I created this online garden to share the daylilies that brighten our yard. Many of them grow in hidden corners and bloom on their own schedule, each showing off its own special beauty in a natural, untamed way.

Because each flower blooms for just one day, taking their photos has taught me that real beauty is often found in their small imperfections.

These photos, taken at different times of day, are the result of a true labor of love. Some of our daylilies are special varieties we picked out, while others were grown from seed.

Many varieties are new for me in 2026! They are a big addition to my growing collection, which is still modest compared to the amazing collections some of my friends have. Still, we all share the same excitement for each new blossom!

Our affectionate dog, Ollie, and I hope you enjoy exploring this online collection.

With petals and paws,
