For 1999, 10 daylily cultivars are presented as the most popular daylilies growing in AHS member gardens and/or in their immediate area. Member ballots were submitted to tabulators in each of the 15 AHS Regions to determine regional popularity poll winners. The voting data was merged to determine the AHS National Daylily Popularity Poll Winners. Please refer to the AHS Regional Popularity Polls regarding the popular daylilies from the various geographic and climatic AHS Regions.
