Hemerocallis 
The New Day Lilies 
Most lovers of flowers are fa¬ 
miliar with the Lemon and Orange 
Daylilies of our grandmothers’ 
gardens, but for those who have 
not become acquainted with the 
grand new hybrids that have been 
developed in recent years a great 
surprise is in store. By crossing 
with recently discovered species 
from Asia new colors and forms 
have been produced. The result is 
a glorious race of plants that is 
being received with enthusiasm 
throughout the world. 
The culture of hemerocallis is 
as simple as that of any vigorous 
perennial. They increase rapidly 
by root divisions. The leaves 
form tufts resembling those of 
the Japanese irises. With a good 
selection of varieties one may 
have a constant succession of 
bloom throughout the summer.
