Ed Kirchhoff began Daylily world during the mid-sixties as a third-generation nurseryman in Sanford, Florida. He learned how to hybridize gladiolus from his grandfather in the 1920s.
David Kirchhoff and his partner Mort Morss came to Daylily world, sharing the hobby and fondness for daylilies in the early 1970s. Soon their journey with daylilies had begun. Logan Armstrong, a keen young plantsman with an appetite for all things daylilies, began helping us in 2019 and can be seen sharpening his hybridizing skills during the bloom season.
The team at DLW is glad to welcome you back to the garden. We have dutifully followed all forms of social distancing and we are now open with just a few minor restrictions. Throughout the last few months, we have worked to expand our display areas, adding many new companion plants and examples of daylilies in the landscape.
These are just a few safety guidelines, but it will not hamper the garden views and beautiful daylilies!
All guests will be required to wear face masks.
Special tours for groups of eight or more, will remain by appointment only and are hosted at our picnic area with a minimum of 6 feet between tables. There will be thorough sanitizing of surfaces prior to and following your visit along with hand sanitizing stations for your use. We have also implemented limited contact protocols for all transactions so if possible, please have a credit card available.
