Northeast Ohio Daylily Society<br />
New Club in Cleveland<br />
eland<br />
At last, Cleveland, Ohio, has its first daylily club. The Northeast<br />
Ohio Daylily Society (NODS) was formed this year<br />
(That’s “nods of approval,” not “nods of sleep.”*).<br />
The club is the result of efforts by three energetic young<br />
women, Jani Sikon, Lynn Stickle, and Kathy Schultz with<br />
Cleveland’s own premier hybridizer Curt Hanson. The club<br />
was formed on June 28 at the Holden Arboretum. An enthusiastic<br />
group of daylily folk gathered together and chose a<br />
name, enjoyed an auction, and signed up for future fun. Curt<br />
Hanson donated first-class plants, and the talented David<br />
Enochian autioned them to the new club members.<br />
Since this beginning, the group has enjoyed a picnic at Curt’s<br />
Crintonic Gardens and a class at the Arboretum.<br />
Future plans include speakers, garden tours, plant sales,<br />
design classes, and more. Anyone in the Cleveland area is<br />
encouraged to join in the fun by contacting Jani Sikon.<br />
