Welcome

GENERAL INFORMATION NEWS

I am pleased and honored to announce that in 2024 Tom Bruce was elected a Director of the national Japanese Iris Society for a three year term. Tom’s garden is also an official Japanese Iris Display Garden.

Tom Bruce, in 2021, won the Jeffcoat Hybridizer Award for ‘SUNNY ATTITUDE’ his very first introduction.

Our new garden beds, around the nursery building, highlight deer-resistant plantings. This unique display garden has signage giving the names of each plant. Here you will find many varieties of our NEW Hosta Hanging Baskets that are available in the Hosta Sales Pavilion all priced at $18.00. If you keep them 5 feet or more above ground they become very deer-resistant. Excellent choices for a porch or to hang in trees or on bird feeder poles.

SUNNY ATTITUDE

This year we have added many new varieties of Daylilies, Hosta and Iris. Come early for the best selection. We have expanded the offerings of Tom’s introductions all offered in 2 gal. pots for $15.00. Check them out here online and arrive early with your wish list. All other plants for sale are priced at $12.00.

We sell Daylilies, Hostas, and Iris.  We have over 1200 potted daylilies for sale and a good selection of Bearded and Japanese & Siberian Iris. Our large selection of Hostas (over 60 varieties) include mini's right up to the largest varieties.

Our extensive display garden contains daylilies, hosta and iris display plants, deer-resistant companion annuals and perennials, and garden art. The garden building features a large shaded porch and a public restroom. Carolina Daylilies has a paved driveway and ample parking for cars and tour buses.

Currently we have 63 Tom Bruce Introductions available for sale. In the sales garden, Tom’s introductions have a gold tag. In addition our sales garden has potted Daylilies for sale in 2 gallon pots priced at $12.00 per pot. All Hosta are $12.00 per pot and all Bearded, Crested, Japanese, and Siberian Iris are also $12.00 per pot. Our new and unique Hosta Hanging Baskets are priced at $18.00.

GARDEN LOCATION: READ CAREFULLY

IMPORTANT! Our paved driveway runs to the left of the EXIT sign for Heritage Christian Academy.  It is best to put Heritage Christian Academy (649 Barr Rd.) in your GPS and then turn into our paved driveway (with the Dead End sign) just beside their blue and white EXIT sign.
