Hemerocallis (Yellow Day Lily) 
(Greek—beautiful by day; because the blossoms close at night) 
LILIES, or Hemerocallis Jlava y have long been favorites in our gardens, and are 
always included in any list of the most popular hardy plants. All of the varieties of 
Hemerocallis are desirable and beautiful. The tall, graceful, grass-like foliage is very 
handsome and sets off the charming, lily-like flowers very effectively. They are perfectly 
hardy, and thrive in almost any location. They look particularly well naturalized along 
streams or on moist banks, and will thrive most luxuriantly in partial shade. They 
have been much improved of late, and many new hybrids have been introduced, which 
are more richly colored and much larger than the original form, blooming more pro- 
and lasting a long time in water when cut. 
Prices, where not noted, 15 cts. each, $1.50 per doz., $10 per 100. Extra-large clumps can be supplied 
at double price
