Come celebrate with us! Rich Howard, CT Daylily Club past president and hybridizer from Wallingford, CT, won the 2025 Stout Silver Medal for his stunning flower “EXPLOSION IN THE PAINT FACTORY.” This award is the highest honor for a daylily and its hybridizer, given by the American Hemerocallis Society.
Rich will talk about his hybridizing program and how Explosion came to be. He will also feature many of his other beautiful daylilies, some of which will be auctioned off. CAKE and refreshments will be served!

Connecticut Daylily Society 
Hi, Can anyone attend the meeting “Daylilies 101” in March? Or is it just for members? If not, do we need to reserve a spot? I saw your booth at the CT Flower & Garden Show recently and am interested in learning more. Thank you.
