About Our Daylily Society
The Tallahassee Daylily Society (TDS) is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to the study, cultivation, and enjoyment of daylilies. TDS was organized in 1950.
They held their first show in 1953 with over 1,000 attendees coming through to look at the flowers. Tours of individual daylily gardens were also included when the club, early on, had daylily shows. They conducted adult and children flower arrangement competitions and had numerous flowers for display.
The Tallahassee Daylily Society hosted a National Daylily Convention including several tours to individual daylily gardens.
TDS has since grown to include members from all over the Tallahassee area who share a passion for these beautiful plants.
The TDS holds regular meetings and events throughout the year, including garden tours, plant sales, and educational seminars. Members also have the opportunity to participate in Regional and National Daylily shows and competitions. . . . (read more)
