900 varieties of daylilies! I didn't know there were that many. I know what you will be spending part of that paycheck on now. Do you get a discount grow my own?

I knew absolutely nothing about daylilies until about a month ago. I got a job working as a nursery attendant at a local flower farm that specializes in daylilies! I am SO hooked now. We carry something like 900 varieties of daylilies.
Hahahahahahaha. That is MY life....

I will get a discount after I'm there 60 days. Right now, though, they're on sale for cheaper than I could get them for with an employee discount! Potted daylilies are normally $9/pot (sometimes with up to 4 fans in them!), on sale right now for $4/pot. Field lilies are $3/fan. I think the sale runs the whole month of September. I will have to post pictures of where I work. It's a really, really beautiful place.

Sounds wonderful, I would love to see where you work. I think I would have a very hard time bringing home my full pay check. ;)

These are a couple of pictures from where I work. Not many of the daylilies are in bloom right now. There are something like 12 acres there.

There are more great pictures here. http://www.amadorflowerfarm.com/

Sounds like some really great Christmas presents to me! (Take a pic of the bloom and stick in the pot)
