About Display Gardens
American Hemerocallis Society (AHS) Display Gardens showcase the beauty, diversity, and performance of daylilies across a wide range of climates and growing conditions. These gardens serve as living classrooms—places to see registered cultivars growing in real landscapes, learn best practices, and experience daylilies at their peak.
Display Gardens may be public gardens, private gardens open to visitors, or hybridizer and educational gardens. Each reflects the unique interests, climate, and design style of its host, while supporting AHS’s mission to educate, inspire, and connect daylily enthusiasts.
Visitors to Display Gardens can:
- View a wide selection of registered daylily cultivars
- Learn how different varieties perform in specific regions
- Explore garden design, maintenance, and hybridizing approaches
- Connect with local clubs, hybridizers, and fellow daylily fans
Display Gardens are an important outreach tool for AHS, helping introduce new audiences to daylilies while providing valuable learning opportunities for experienced growers. Garden details, visiting information, and seasonal availability may vary, so we encourage visitors to check listings and contact gardens before planning a visit.
Whether you are new to daylilies or a longtime enthusiast, AHS Display Gardens offer inspiration, education, and a chance to see what’s possible in gardens across the country.
