yellow self to date, standing 33 inches, and giving a fine mass 
effect. The color is exactly the shade of Hemerocallis flava. Flower 
is slightly veined. First-year plants occasionally show streaks, but 
when established the effect is almost a true self and should prove 
very valuable for garden work. It is taller than Aurea, Mrs. 
Neubronner, and Sherwin-Wright. An American introduction of 
great merit. 
WHITE KNIGHT. (Saunders 1916.) A beautiful, absolutely snow-
