Hemerocallis • The Dependable Lily 
Anyone who has tried lilies, other than Regal and Madonna, 
knows of their mysterious disappearances and the succession of 
disappointments which they bring. 
Now comes the hybridist with a new race ot Day-Lilies which 
approach the beauty and fragrance of the bulb lily and comprise 
the hardiest plant on the garden list. 
These new Day-Lilies are being hybridized by Dr. Stout of 
the New York Botanical Gardens. Varying sizes, seasons, and 
shades of red, pink, orange, and yellow to cream are included. 
A selected group of varieties will produce bloom from early May 
throughout summer and early fall, when the garden is, other¬ 
wise, very much at a standstill. 
Grow Hemerocallis 
WHY? 
For rare beauty, rich coloring and charming grace 
of form. 
For fragrant display and long-lasting cut-flowers 
from early May until mid-August. 
For unsurpassed hardiness and freedom from 
disease and insect pests; in most any soil and 
climate. 
For clean and decorative foliage from spring until 
winter. 
In the place of lilies which have failed you. 
HOW? 
Holes large enough to amply accommodate the 
roots. Spread roots and work soil around them. 
Set a bit deeper than ground-mark level of nursery 
row. 
WHERE? 
In the perennial background or shrub foreground. 
As specimens or in beds and masses by themselves; 
along pools and streams; in sun or semi-shade; in 
damp or dry locations; in sand or clay. 
Anna Betscher. (Betscher.) July, August; 3'. A smooth, open, large, light 
golden yellow flower, deepening in tone at center, with broad, glistening 
and overlapping segments. $1.50 each, $12.50 for 10. 
Apricot. (Yeld.) May, June; 2'. Broad, widely open segments of a distinct 
rich apricot. A fine, early, free-blooming variety. 50 cts. each, $4 for 10. 
Cinnabar. (Stout.) July; 2)^-3'. Fine delicate shade of brownish red; 
sepals and petals strongly gold-glistening; throat is cadmium-yellow; outer 
half of petals sprinkled with rich fulvous red. Bloom spreads 5" and is 
recurving. Up to 18 flowers on one stem. $2 each, $17.50 for 10. 
NOTE.—Dr. Stout’s Hemerocallis are not to be introduced until 
there are enough plants to support a comparatively low price. Mikado, 
Soudan, Vesta, and Wau-Bun were catalogued first, and accordingly 
sold so heavily that it is now apparent they should have been with¬ 
held for several more years. Cinnabar, named later, was consequently 
withheld and the resultant supply permits a lower price. 
Dumortieri. May, June; 12". Orange-colored flowers, shaded brown on the 
outside. The plants, which are dwarf in habit, flower freely early in the 
season. 50 cts. each, $4 for 10. 
Estmere. (Yeld.) Flowers are medium full, widely spreading, and pale 
yellowish orange. The somewhat slender scapes spread and bend grace¬ 
fully from the crown, bringing the flowers into various levels with the greater 
number in the outer rim of the dome of foliage. The time of blooming con¬ 
forms closely to the other Day-Lilies, but in some cases the plants may 
flower in the early days of May. $2 each, $17.50 for 10.
