Bloomfest 2027
A Celebration of Daylilies, the U-Cut Flower Garden & the Beauty of July
July 17–18, 2027 | Chana, Illinois
Summer is in full bloom at Hidden Timber Gardens — and there’s no better time to visit than during Bloomfest.
This two-day garden festival celebrates the beauty of our gardens, the beauty of blooming daylilies, the joy of our U-Cut Flower Garden, and everything we love about the gardening season.
Stroll through colorful display gardens, dig daylilies to take home, cut fresh summer blooms, and enjoy a relaxed weekend filled with flowers, music, local vendors, and inspiration.
🌼 Daylily Digging at Bloomfest
Our daylily gardens are at their peak in July, and daylily digging is available during Bloomfest.
Choose your favorite varieties straight from our garden beds, and we’ll dig the clumps for you to plant in your own landscape.
Why daylilies?
Daylilies are hardy, low-maintenance perennials that return year after year with vibrant color. With a wide range of colors, sizes, and bloom times, there’s something for every garden style.
How it works:
✔ Browse our blooming daylily beds
✔ Choose your favorites
✔ We dig the clumps
✔ You take them home to enjoy
