Welcome to Lilyfield Farm where daylilies and lilies are grown. Hardiness breeding is inherent thanks to the west central Saskatchewan, Canada, zone 3, location. Cheryl has been breeding flowers since 2007.
Daylilies are shipped bare root across Canada. The timing is mid-May to June, once most hard frosts are gone. All are double fans, increasing the likelihood of bloom the first year.
Due to the location, the gardens are not open to the public.

Botrytis Resistance
It took 40 years before weather conditions were wet enough for botrytis to affect lilies here at the farm in Lucky Lake, Saskatchewan. Since 2010 botrytis resistance has been an obvious goal. Here are three cultivars that show good resistance. Tetraploid pollen used on Iowa Rose results in easy seed. Poorer results on Morden Butterfly. Not Centurion being a diploid asiatic lily is easy to breed with.
Not Centurion
Morden Butterfly, W.G. Ronald
Iowa Rose, Prochaska, Hartle-Gilman
