All About the National Capital Daylily Club

The National Capital Daylily Club (NCDC) is a non-profit, educational organization whose purpose is to promote daylilies through education and exhibition. Our activities are centered around the Washington, DC metropolitan area. The NCDC Constitution and By-Laws are available in PDF format (413k).

The NCDC web site provides our members with a convenient source of information about the club and up-to-date information about our events. We warmly welcome daylily enthusiasts of all levels and encourage them to join our activities. We are always looking for volunteers to help with our activities and to donate registered daylily cultivars to our many sales. We also wish to reach out to the general gardening community in the Washington, D.C. area and throughout the entire country.

NCDC hosts annual events including:

Flower Show
Garden Seminar and Educational Event
Spring Banquet - guest speaker and a plant raffle
Bus Tour to members' gardens - including luncheon
Fall Picnic with plant raffle and Awards Ceremony
Plant Sales - daylilies for $5 per double fan (bare roots) What a bargain! They cost much more at local nurseries.
Daylily Auctions - Club Plants and other expensive cultivars

We have a Club Plant Program and Auction. The Club buys expensive, new daylily introductions. Active members grow them for 2 years and they are usually auctioned off at the August Plant Sale. Members who grow them get to keep 1 fan. Members who wish to participate should fill out an application. See our Home Page for the NCDC Club Plant Application and Club Plant Rules.
