Our daylily garden is a small portion of
the Moore family's 60-year old working farm, which also specializes in
growing Christmas trees.
The garden site was once home to a quaint 150
year old barn that was destroyed by Mother Nature - a wind sheer took it
down.
For several years the area was strictly grass, until we decided it
was a wonderful location for daylilies. It is a sun rich spot and very
inviting from the flanking state route - especially when our gently,
sloping hillside is alive with hem color.
The traces of the barn are
present in our garden. The raised bed are delineated by oak beams and
sandstone blocks from the barn. Of course, the composted cow manure was
also a terrific boost for our initial plantings. Last year we added a
gazebo to the garden's center, making it even a more inviting spot.
"Folks
relish our bucolic setting and the peacefulness."
