Lilyfield Farm is a lily and daylily hybridizing farm owned and operated by Cheryl Siemens. It is located in west central Saskatchewan, Canada, garden location zone 3. All our perennial plants and bulbs are field grown and have survived and thrived here for several years.
We create new exclusive lilies and daylilies from seed, evaluating for years before selecting a choice few that are outstanding, unusual or improved in traits of beauty and vigour.
In 2016 we introduced our first daylily varieties and in 2020 our first lily varieties. It takes several years from seed to final selection and multiplication before they are available. Made for challanging Canadian gardens!
We offer varieties that are good performers in our climate. The harsh winters kill off the less hardy. Plants that have poor foliage, few blooms or ugly, non-opening blooms are composted. We try them, so you don’t have to.
Cheryl is an accredited judge with the North American Lily Society.
Member of the South Saskatchewan Lily Society, Canadian Prairie Lily Society and American Hemerocallis Society.
Cheryl has a Diploma in Vocational Agriculture and a Prairie Horticulture Certificate from the University of Saskatchewan.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN YOUR DAYLILY ORDER
We dig your daylilies, wash the plants with plain water, trim the foliage and roots to relieve a bit of transplant stress, wrap them in paper with a label and ship them within that day or the next.
Planting instructions are included in the box.
One thing to keep in mind that if the plants are in the mail to for a week, they will likely yellow and die back a bit. Wait it out, if they are cared for and watered they should bounce back with new healthy foliage.
WILL THEY BLOOM THE YEAR THEY ARE PLANTED?
The experience here is that the shorter time they are out of the ground, the more likely they are to bloom the first year. When plants arrive at Lilyfield that have been in the mail for a week, about 40% of them bloom that same year.
We would appreciate your feedback on how they do their first year.

RE Rebloom. To be truthful, most daylilies that say RE, do not rebloom at Lilyfield. They rebloom in the climate that they were hybridized in, for example Florida or Tennessee. If they rebloom at Lilyfield, we make a note of it in the written description. Some that do rebloom here, are often from breeders closer to our climate.
