Flower stalk is 4 to 6 feet high with many 
branches. Branchlets are thin and wiry enough 
to be almost invisible and the flowers look 
like yellow butterflies among the green 
branches of the flower stem. Individual blos¬ 
soms open about 11 A.M. on a sunny morning 
and last twenty-four hours with a new group 
opening each day. Green leaves at the base 
are not conspicuous. Flowers cut well and 
make a dainty arrangement in themselves, 
with new flowers opening daily for a week or 
two after being cut. Plants are large enough 
to make bold accents in the border without 
crowding smaller plants and are a distinct 
addition to the garden. Delivery early sum¬ 
mer.
