The history of the current Nacogdoches Daylily Society is a brief one. Originated in 1985 by Jean Barnhart, the club had four active daylily growers and four bridge club friends who were "drafted" to help with the 1990 Regional Meeting preparations. The club was reorganized in the Fall of 1992 with only Jean Barnhart and Delores Jones remaining as Charter Members. Seven gardeners joined at that Fall meeting. The on going club project is the daylily garden at the Stephen F. Austin Mast Arboretum.

The club's daylily garden at the Stephen F. Austin Mast Arboretum was established in 1989. The club has since dedicated and renamed the garden in honor of the club founder, Jean Barnhart. It is now the Jean Barnhart Daylily Garden.
