The Greater St. Louis Daylily Society is a non-profit organization in conjunction with the American Hemerocallis Society for the purpose of:
Exchanging information concerning the culture and breeding of daylilies (Hemerocallis)
Educating the public about daylilies and its culture though shows, lectures, exhibits and tours.
Socializing with other enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
See our Events page for meeting dates and time.
GSLDS Annual Online Auction will be held from August 26 - September 1, 2025. This is our club's main fundraiser for the year. Our members generously donate these daylilies from our own gardens. (We are Zone 6-7). You will be able to receive quality daylilies for a fraction of the cost and help a good cause. Please read the below instructions carefully as some of our processes have changed.
All daylilies will be available for bidding on August 26th. Note the closing date of each. Bidding will have staggered closing dates and times. The Auction Website will be made available in the middle of August for you to view the available daylilies.
Bidding
Most daylilies bids will begin at $5 and can be increased by increments of $1. There are two ways to bid. A bid is a flat bid of, for example, $10. An auto bid is one where you set a maximum price you want to spend, for example, $50. As others bid, your bid will override their bid until it reaches $50. You may increase your auto bid at any time.
Buy Now
A third way to purchase a daylily is to Buy Now. You will pay the Buy Now price and automatically receive that daylily without any additional bids on it.
Shipping
Shipping is listed at $10 per fan. However, we prefer to charge $10 for the first order and $2 for each additional order. Unfortunately, this site will not let us set the shipping that way. We will manually calculate the shipping at the end of the auction and send you a new invoice with the correct amount. So when you receive a winning bidder email, DO NOT pay the invoice YET. Wait until you receive our corrected invoice after the auction is over on September 1st. (It will be less!)
Processing Fee
Remember, this is a fundraiser for our club. In order to use this new site, we must charge a 5% processing fee.
Shipping Date
We will ship the daylilies on Monday, September 8th.
