Welcome to Carla Bontrager’s online garden galleries.
Willow Veil Daylily and Hosta Garden is a family owned and operated business
located in central Indiana near Cicero. Although gardening is not the only thing we
are passionate about, it does tend to take center stage far too often. Our garden is
constantly growing and changing. We haven’t yet introduced any of our own cultivars,
but hope to do so in the future. We have been in business for eight years growing and
selling daylilies, and in the last four years added hostas and grasses to our selections.
We would love to have you or your group visit us. We are open to the public May thru July 4 pm to 7 pm Thursday and Friday, and 9 to 5 Saturday. We are also open by appointment if those hours are not convenient. You will have to remember that daylilies are not blooming in the month of May or the first of June. We have plenty of Hostas and Perennials to consider. We also have an OPEN HOUSE event the first weekend in JULY. We will be open Saturday and Sunday 9 to 5 that weekend with a drawing and great food!
We have started selling many of our daylilies at wholesale prices. Be sure to visit that page if you are looking for quantity and quality discounts.
Please take a look at only half of what we have to offer. And, feel free to call or email us for a full listing of our plants. Unfortunately we do not ship Internationally.
UNFORGOTTEN
I KNOW A GARDEN WHERE THE LILIES GLEAM
AND ONE WHO LINGERS IN THE SUNSHINE THERE
SHE IS THAN WHITE-STOLED LILY FAR MORE FAIR,
AND OH HER EYES ARE HEAVEN-LIT WITH DREAM!
I KNOW A GARRET, COLD AND DARK AND DREAR
AND ONE WHO TOILS AND TOILS WITH TIRELESS PEN
UNTIL HIS BRAVE, SAD EYES GROW WEARY THEN
HE SEEKS THE STARS, PALE SILENT AS A SEER
AND AH, IT’S STRANGE; FOR DESOLATE AND DIM
BETWEEN THESE TWO THERE ROLLS AN OCEAN WIDE
YET HE IS IN THE GARDEN BY HER SIDE
AND SHE IS IN THE GARRET THERE WITH HIM
