Calling all ODS Members!
When you are moving plants around this spring so you can fit in all the new ones, please take a moment to set aside a few for the sale and auction tables for 2011.
This is a good time of year to line out a few of the special ones you've picked up through the babysitting program and at Can-Am auctions so they have this year to grow to be ready for the R4/11 Peak Bloom Meeting.
If you don't have room to line them out we will take your donations this year and hold for next July. Just send me a note to make arrangements.
Howard Hansford, Co-chair R4/11

Each year we receive daylily catalogues from  growers and we drool over new introductions from growers from the southern states such as Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi.

Several members of the Ontario Daylily Society are serious hybridizers with goals of developing vigorous, hardy daylilies that perform exceptionally well in northern climate.

The Ontario Daylily Society is pleased to introduce members who are hybridizing and registering their daylilies with AHS. We also profile our up and coming hybridizers. more.....

Daylily Seed Source

Daylilies are easy to pollinate and hybridize allowing you to create your own crosses and new daylilies.  Even daylilies pollinated by there own pollen will not produce an identical flower.

At the end of the year a hybridizer may have collected hundreds of daylily seeds from select crosses. These will be germinated in hopes of producing a special daylily. Many sell seeds due to time/space constraints or to offset the cost of their daylily habit. more.....

ODS Daylily Robin   

The ODS Robin is a closed group for members of the ODS (Ontario Daylily Society). ODS members are a mix of Daylily enthusiasts, gardeners, hybridizers and growers.
Members are from all across the province of Ontario from Windsor to Ottawa and north to Sudbury and Marathon.

While some diehard regular members drive 3 to 5 hours to attend a meeting others never attend because of their location.
This group acts as a forum to link up members across Ontario.

To join the ODS Robin go to ODS Daylily Robin webpage and click on Join This Group! or  send an email to

You may receive an email asking your name so we can verify you membership.
