🌱 From Vision to Reality: The Story of Darby Landscape Supply
Today we’re excited to share the journey behind Darby Landscape Supply — our family’s newest venture in the landscaping world that’s rooted in heritage, community, and a passion for the outdoors.
Darby Landscape Supply isn’t just another landscape materials yard — it’s the culmination of a long-standing commitment to the land and to serving homeowners, landscapers, and outdoor enthusiasts with premium materials that truly make outdoor spaces shine.
Our family’s connection to the land runs deep. For over 20 years, we’ve been mining gravel locally in Pickaway County, just outside Orient, Ohio. Our roots in the community go back even further, with family members residing in the area since 1949.

1.12.2021 Valley of the Daylilies Announcement
As many of you know, Dan and Jackie Bachman had closed Valley Of The Daylilies as of last fall. It was a good ride, but it was time. We could no longer keep up with the tremendous hard work duties associated with our operation.  We would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank You” to all of our customers throughout the years.  A going out of business sale was a huge success but we owe special thanks to two groups who are carrying on with new daylily programs in the area.
Darby Flower Fields, located in Orient, Ohio, just south of Columbus acquired hundreds of our seedling clumps and many after market cultivars. Darby Flower Fields is a relatively new business operated by Becky Moehl and her mother, Judy Roush. Becky’s daughter Kendall is also an active partner in the business. They have years of experience in the agricultural field and the farm grows many varieties of hosta as well as over 850 varieties of daylilies. Their web site is www.darbyflowerfields.com . Contact them for further info.
Our daylily breeding program was obtained by Robert Britton, who with his daughter Laura, run Good Life Farm. Good Life Farm produces naturally grown vegetables and chicken, pork and beef for both farmer’s market and purchase through their Good Life Farm Club (located near Waynesville, OH). Robert has been hybridizing daylilies for several years and has some outstanding seedlings. He now has all Bachman select seedlings and 2020 Fall introductions which will be assimilated into his program. Robert has the same emphasis of plant habit as Dan so look for wonderful new daylilies from Good Life Farm. The website is www.goodlifefamilyfarm.com/daylilies and like on facebook Good Life Farm.
