SUMMARY:Expanding your Daylily Garden Horizons with Natives and Other Perennials
DESCRIPTION:The Connecticut Daylily Society invites you to join us at our November 7 meeting to enjoy a program by Nancy DuBrule-Clemente on “other” plants to grow in our daylily gardens. Nancy grows and loves daylilies in her home garden and has many great ideas to make them more beautiful with other plants\, especially those that support pollinators and other creatures! Nancy will share some of her favorite perennials\, grasses\, groundcovers\, and small shrubs that we can easily grow in our daylily gardens to enhance multi-season interest and to nurture pollinators. Many of these will be natives! \nSocial hour with light refreshments (bring a sandwich?) will begin at noon and Nancy’s program will begin Saturday\, November 7 at 1 at Sycamore Hills Recreation Center (aka Avon Senior Center) at 635 West Avon Road). There will be door prizes at the end of the meeting and Greg Haggett’s 2027 daylily photo calendar will be available for purchase. Contact us via Rebecca Nisley at 860-306-6315 or check out our webpage at ctdaylilyclub.com. \nNancy DuBrule-Clemente founded her garden store Natureworks in 1983 with a goal of providing organic gardening services to the community. (She recently sold it to her employees in 2021.) She continues to work with Natureworks\, writing the weekly email\, working occasionally at the garden center\, and doing some garden design and supervising garden installations for existing clients. The retail store on RT 22 in Northford is a destination for gardeners all over southern New England with its focus on supporting pollinators\, creating healthy habitats\, encouraging native plants\, and supplying unusual plants to serious gardeners. Nancy graduated from the Rackliffe Hicks School of Agriculture in the 70’s. She has written two books and speaks throughout the state on a wide range of subjects. Nancy is a total garden geek and a passionate organic gardener.
