Yellow Garden Lilies. 
(Hemerocallis). 
These beautiful and fragrant golden lilies 
are of the easiest culture, succeeding in al¬ 
most any garden soil. They are remarkably 
free from the enemies that so unfortunately 
beset so many of our garden favorites. By 
a selection from the following list, these 
beautiful lilies can be had in flower from May 
to August. The leaf growth starts very early 
in the spring, adding a pleasing light green to 
the border where they are used. This growth 
quickly shoots up i: to a graceful clump of 
flowing rich green foliage, which lends its at¬ 
traction to the garden border. Springing 
from this growth graceful flower spikes ap¬ 
pear, liberally supplied with flowers and buds 
for several weeks. The color is from soft 
lemon to richest apricot yellow and deep 
orange, varying with the variety. Fragrance 
delightful. No other one class of strictly 
hardy garden lilies can be depended on to 
do more towards delightful permanent gar¬ 
den effects.
