The Bud, Branch and Scape is OUR SMDS club newsletter.
All members are encouraged to contribute by sharing news of special gardening events in your area,
gardening & daylily pictures and articles, and poetry. We strive to keep our newsletter easy to read and informative.

SMDS is: An educational, social and scientific society, promoting and propagating the daylily.
We add a lot of socializing and propagating to our daylily education!

Our club members are spread across MI into Canada and down to IL.
We would love to read about what is going on in your garden,
or what you enjoyed most about the past gardening season.
Have any hybridizing or gardening tips to share?
How about favorite garden art or projects?

If you are not currently a member of SMDS, please join us in our efforts of sharing

the knowledge and love of daylilies with each other and the world.
