Welcome to Daylily Meadows the Garden site of Paul Foster

In fulfilling my promise to bring the beauty of my original daylily cultivars to the Web, I am proud to display the  2021 Spring Introductions that are available now. These Daylilies were registered with the American Hemerocallis Society.

Visit the unique and popular Daylily Gallery which contains introductions, general catalogue, and various other categories of interest.

The Info Center contains contact, ordering, directions, and open garden hours information. All updates to garden hours are posted on the Garden Hours page.

I hope you will enjoy a good long tour around my website and come back to "visit" often; there is a lot of information and tons of daylily images here for your enjoyment.

ABOUT ME:

Having moved here in November of 2007, I am not a newcomer to the hybridizing of daylilies. Since 1997, I have been hybridizing Daylily cultivars that are winter hardy in my previous location, Merrimack, New Hampshire (USDA Zone 5).

Collecting and hybridizing many of the very "latest and greatest" Daylily cultivars from the most respected daylily breeders in the country, my focus in hybridizing has always been on not just producing "another pretty face," but rather, improving the overall characteristics of the entire plant, carefully and ruthlessly culling out thousands of cultivars that did not live up to our standards for PLANT PERFORMANCE, including, but not limited to, hardiness, vigor, multiple branching, high bud count, bloom above the foliage, concurrent or re-bloom, sun fastness, disease resistance, and overall high quality plant habit. Many a pretty face has been consigned to the compost pile because its plant performance did not live up to my standards!

Today, in our hybridizing program, I have thousands of seedlings developed over several generations from which to select and evaluate potential introductions that will expand upon the quality of my original daylily breeding stock. And, of course, each year I continue to selectively purchase more new introductions to incorporate into my breeding program. The bottom line is to produce new introductions that manifest significant advancements over their predecessors.
