ASHWOOD GARDEN
Hours: 12 to 6 pm Tuesday through Saturday CLOSED SUNDAYS +MONDAYS
We will maintain these hours only during the last week in June through the end of July. All other times require a call ahead to confirm ahead that we will be available. By the end of bloom season there is always a backlog of things that must be attended to, many of them away from the property.
For Ashwood Garden to keep up with the growing competition in daylily hybridization, we feel that we need to set out at least 10,000 to 15,000 new seedlings every year. To achieve that we must be able to take advantage of the several morning hours during which the flowers are receptive to fertilization. We thank our customers for respecting our business hours so that we can do the needed pollination.
As always, our plants are guaranteed to be true to name, state inspected, and healthy.
We will also replace a plant which fails to grow after it is planted. We breed for as hardy of a plant as we are able. Here in our zone 5/6 gardens we have constant freeze/thaw conditions throughout the winter. This is an especially hard test of cold hardiness. We also rarely see snow cover here lasting more than a short while. This also gives the plants a good testing. Nevertheless a rare one of our plants may not do well farther north. If a plant does not do well for you in your garden, we will replace it with a plant of equal value.For choosing which cultivars to purchase, there is nothing like seeing those plants in bloom. We encourage visits during our business hours. Our bloom season tends to run from mid June to the end of July, with peak coming early in July. If you are interested in looking at seedlings, there will about 30,000 in place in 2007.
Our shipping season can start in late April, depending on the weather. We try to honor all requests as to shipping date but that is always subject to the weather also.
