BETSCHER’S HYBRID 
HEMEROCALLIS 
GROWN FROM HYBRIDIZER’S 
STOCK 
For two or three years we were very 
low on this stock and were obliged to 
hold back plants for propagation. We 
now have for sale fairly good quanti¬ 
ties of the varieties offered below. 
You no doubt, are aware of the fact 
that they enjoyed a tremendous demand 
since their introductions to the trade. 
The reason for this is that these New 
Hybrid Hemerocallis flower in the 
months of July and August giving color 
in the gardens at a time when flowers 
are ordinarily scarce. 
ANNA RETSUHER. A magnificent variety, 
producing many rich golden yellow flow¬ 
ers of perfect form during late July and 
August, and growing to a height of 2% 
feet.

deep golden orange flowers are produced 
freely in early July. It grows to a height 
of 3 feet, is quite vig'orous in habit, and a 
most effective garden variety.

3 foot slender stem. In full bloom in July. 
Stems are slender and plant of medium 
size. A showy plant for the small border.

and a brilliant combination of apricot and 
cadmium-yellow. They are borne on stems 
averaging 4 feet. Flowers during- the 
months of July and August.
