Soliciting Photos of your Gardens, 2010 Seedlings, etc. ....
The webmasters are looking for more work!

Looking for Photos of Betty Miller's Daylily Introductions. Can you help, please?
The webmasters are working with Ann Cutts, daughter of Betty Miller, to develop the section of the CVIDS website devoted to the many contributions made by Betty to the daylily world and CVIDS. We would very much like to post photos of her introductions. If you have digital images (or hard copies that we could scan and return) of her lilies, please contact the webmasters (j.poulton@mchsi.com). Likewise, if you have information about her specific interests in daylilies and her contributions to CVIDS, please forward it via the above address. Thank you!
