Pleasant Valley Gardens is a picturesque daylily garden and Clydesdale horse farm located on 38 acres of rolling farmland. The farm features a 1843 federal style farmhouse, a number of barns and out buildings. We have been hybridizing daylilies, and breeding Clydesdales for about 8 years. Specializing in round ruffled bagel type daylilies, but as you can see from our intros and seedlings we have come to love them in all their different forms. We are members of the American Hemerocallis society, and the Dayton and Columbus daylily clubs. Peak bloom for us is around the 4th of July. We are open from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM weekdays and 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM weekends, during blooming season. We welcome your visit. Please e-mail us for ordering and shipping information.
