Daylily info from zelma from William B. Cook-Fw: visited your web site I

Last week I was visiting the iris-talk list and noticed William b. Cooks
info on his web site http://daylily.net/tall /gardens/tallpine.htm  I
entered his web page and found a lot of fascinating links etc.  I signed his
guest with the msg and received a very fast answer.  I really appreciated
his response and information.  I am sharing  both my question and his
answer.    If you enter the web site., after checking out his great daylily
pictures--Click 25 newest members and you will find additional sites.  I
especially enjoyed the Happy Moose web site available there.  Have not
completely explored all of them but spent a good 2hours on the ones I did.
Happy moose specializes in hybridizing the Polytepas type daylily and has an
on line catalog.  I

>DAYLILIES, THE PERFECT PERENNIAL by Lewis and Nancy Hill.  They are from
>one of the New England States, so it is written from a "northern"
>perspective.  The other is HEMEROCALLIS THE DAYLILY by R.W. Munson Jr.
>This is the Munson who has introduced many high quality Daylilies.  He
>lives in the next county from here, so this book is written from a
>"southern" perspective.  Both will be of use to you in a Zone 7 Climate.
>Both have color photos.
>     Both books are available through the Eureka Gardening Collection.
>DAYLILIES, THE PERFECT PERENNIAL costs $16.95 and HEMEROCALLIS THE DAYLILY
>costs $22.95.  Shipping costs are $3.80 for the first book and $1.00 for
>each additional book.  They accept checks and money orders, but not credit
>cards.  All orders are shipped Priority Mail.  They are good to deal with.
