I'd be delighted to receive any website material at your earliest convenience. Thanks! Updated Bulletin Board.
May 29: There are many pluses to living in Iowa City, but, for most residences, having a large garden for daylilies is not one of them! Since being bitten by the daylily bug three years ago, your webmaster has been attempting to cram too many daylilies into too little space - even his better half would agree with that statement! Click here to see how the webmaster recently added another daylily bed by getting rid of a jungle of shrubs at the far end of the yard. This process began in October 2008 and culminated only this week with the planting of seedlings from some of last year's crosses (involving bicolors, of course!). While the webmaster designed the bed, he is indebted to his brother-in-law Tim, who, working alone, lugged the twenty blocks of Anamosa limestone into position. Hope you enjoy the photos.
