This is our 27th fall daylily festival! The location is in Camp Hill, near Harrisburg PA. Official events are scheduled noon to noon, October 22-23, 2022. Many attendees arrive early on Friday and enjoy the informal preview activities Friday evening and Saturday morning. Saturday morning we also hold clinics, Jim Murphy hosts a chat room, and we have other fun activities. We have many exciting speakers including Margo Reed, Curtis Cerillo, Kathy Jentz, and Joe Hudson. Peter Donato will show the daylilies of the future. Stuart and Diane Kendig will present the famous 2022 LilyGame, which will confuse some and excite many. A wonderful buffet dinner is included in the registration fee and we have a huge plant raffle, silent auction, and great daylilies for auction.
We are excited this year to provide a reduced registration rate for first time attendees! And we have a great daylily plant to give each new attendee. We want more participation from within Region 3 and we love everyone who travels to Lilyhemmer from other AHS Regions. Lilyhemmer is fun for every daylily enthusiast who is able to attend.
Registration fee for 2022 is $89 (USD); $50 for first time attendees and $45 for youth members.

Reward for new attendees:
We want to encourage new attendees and we are offering a nice daylily plant, minimum value of $35, to each new attendee. And there are lots of other prizes.
Lilyhemmer attendees can win lots of prizes during the raffles and games we play. In addition, there are opportunities to win one of two $500 gift certificates. One attendee will be selected to win a $500 gift certificate donated by Woodhenge Gardens on Saturday night, and one attendee will be selected to win a $500 plant certificate donated by Small World Gardens at the close of Lilyhemmer on Sunday.

Live Auction Donations
(Saturday night, after dinner) AHS members and hybridizers have generously supported our auction and we again need your support. Potted plants are preferred, bare root plants don't work for everyone in October in our climate, but certificates for spring shipment are also welcomed. Lilyhemmer attendees are encouraged to pot up a great plant and bring it for the auction. Please let us know what you are donating, and forward your questions to:
