Solaris Farms

Welcome to Solaris Farms, a family-owned nursery, that offers Hemerocallis (daylilies), Paeonia (peonies), and Lilium (true lilies).  We grow our plants onsite (not resellers), allowing us to amass much information about durability and performance for northern gardeners. Our mission is to provide excellent northern tier plant material and at the same time provide education.   Visit our culture and care web pages for no-nonsense growing information.

Set in a century-old Wisconsin farmstead, Solaris Farms specializes in hardy, field-grown daylilies, peonies, and lilies.  All were cultivated to withstand the climatic rigors of the upper Midwest. Here, we present thousands of daylily, peony, and lily cultivars, from exciting new introductions to classic favorites.  Many of our plants are of our own origination and our mission in hybridizing is…better plant, better stems/foliage, and better flowers in that order!  Solaris Farms is located in an area of harsh winter climate that experiences greater than normal freeze-thaw cycles, icing, and exposure.  With these factors in mind, Solaris Farms is working on programs involving clear vibrant colors and superior northern plant habits.  If you are tired of plants that do not perform or even survive in the north, give us a try–we guarantee your ‘hardy’ satisfaction!   Great garden plants must not only survive but be productive as plants!   Our plants do not require special winter attention and have been tested without mulching or extra care.  The farm is the State of Wisconsin registered and inspected nursery and an official American Hemerocallis Society Display Garden.
