An Iris Lover’s Catalog” 
Choice Hemerocallis 
(Daylilies) 
These hardy perennials hardly need any introduction to the flower 
loving public. Yet with our plant wizards working on them one is 
astounded with the many new types and colors that have been develop¬ 
ed. They can hardly be compared with the older forms for they are 
so different and so much improved. By selecting freely of various 
varieties, flowers may be had in abundance in unbroken succession 
from June until September. They can be had in varied beautiful 
shades of orange, apricot, buff, yellow, and citron. For hardiness, 
vigor and freedom from disease, they are unsurpassed. Whether plant¬ 
ed in herbaceous border or by a Lily Pond, their graceful arching 
foliage, and tall, stout flowers and stalks lend charm wherever placed. 
They succeed in any soil of normal fertility, prefering a slightly moist 
location. Some of the early varieties combine beautifully with Iris. 
We have several new forms on trial here that show great promise for 
this type of use.
