PASSION'S PROMISE, named so, for my daylily passion, and the promise of things to come... an AHS Honorable Mention award winner.

Hi, I'm Pat Sayers and my garden is located on the north shore of Long Island, New York, up in the hills of Huntington. Our plants have to be not only hardy but vigorous as well, because of all the freeze thaws we have. I love building "secret garden rooms" and have a maze of them on just over an acre.

But, at this point, I am selling my home and gardens, as maintaining the garden has become difficult for this old girl. I have now sold out all of my stock, but have left the website on line as a reference. To all of you who have been collecting my hybrids, thank you so much.

I love chatting, and accept speaking engagements for garden clubs and plant societies, here in the US and in Canada, and will continue doing this. Topics are varied, from 'Building Secret Garden Rooms', to 'Old Farmers Tales and Tricks', or how about 'Sex in the Garden,' which is all about hybridizing new plants, or 'Tried and True Vigorous Daylilies and their Culture', 'Perennial Companions for Color All Season', as well as 'Hands on Flower Show Workshops". Call (516) 650-2320 for additional information.
