HEMEROCALLIS HYBRIDS 
Here are the new Day Lilies that have of late been so 
much in horticultural news. Marvelous tones of lemon, buff, 
gold, orange and copper, with tawny shadings and ruddy 
overlays. Many are fragrant, all are hardy. About half the 
seed in this blend is saved directly from large-flowering 
hybrid named varieties. The balance is product of hand- 
pollenized blooms of such species as Dumortieri, Minor, 
Aurantiaca, Middendorffi, Fulva, Citrina, Flava and Serotina, 
pollen in each instance, and daily, being transferred with 
soft brush, from one species to another. There should be 
rather wonderful variation among the plants produced from 
this seed. Hemerocallis seed grows quite readily if sown 
while soil is cool, late fall or early spring. Any sowings 
made in summer, should be in carefully shaded seed-bed. 
The Day Lilies cut well, and are always ornamental in the 
border. They seem to have no diseases, and given any 
chance at all, they will thriftily take care of themselves.
