Great job on the article and photos, Larry.

Nice job on the photos in your garden as well, Ginny!

If anyone comes across Karol's Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, I would love to know where you found it! I have been looking for it for a couple of years!!

This is the photo I took of it in a garden where none was for sale

Regina, an internet search reveals the following sources:
http://keastdaylilygardens.com...
http://mwt.net/~ngp/daylily.ht...
You may already have checked these out. I've ordered from Keast before, since they grow their daylilies in Iowa where I live. They are rarely out of anything, but they do list some as display only. Karol has had it for sale in the past, but it is now listed as not available.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! for sharing your article and pics of this beautiful garden. I am just amazed at her achievement of uniformity in height, strong scapes, and blooming just above the foliage among all her daylilies. It is very evident in the pics that you took of her great achievement. I too would love to visit her garden someday. If you know of any special event that features and showcases her garden in the future, please let us know.

Regina - I bought Fearfully and Wonderfully Made (and 3 others!) directly from Karol and just received a huge plant from her a couple of days ago. Even if she doesn't have the flower listed on her site, she may still have some to sell.

Have a Happy Daylily Day!!
