M<pfl(^ni VersiotEs of An Old Favoriu* 
HYBRID DAYCILIES 
Tliey thrive in any soil, asking only a spot in the snn (but tlu'y’ll do well in light shade, too). Tln-y are absolutely hardy, they 
are not ])estered by insects, disease among them is uid^nown—sure to bloom, ALWAYS a success. 
Flowers are lai’ge size, much resembling true lilies; boime on slender, i-eed-like stems rising from clumps of gracefully ai’ching, 
grassy foliage. Each stem carries numerous buds, each variety blooms over a ])eriod of three to five weeks. 
It is advisable to give them idch soil and water in dry Aveather to i)roduce the best flowers. Tin* fleshy roots should he |)lanted 
about 18 inehes apaid and 2 inelu's deej), spreading them out and fiimiing the soil well over them. For fim‘st bloom l(‘av(‘ clumps 
undistui-bed for three seasons; they need not be disturbed until the clumps begin to fail in flowering, when they can lu* lifted, 
divided and reset. 
And again . . . 
ONLY THE BEST 
We've spent no small amount of time and money the 
last four years assembling, propagating and evaluating 
these glorious new hardy perennials but we don't ask you 
to buy our mistakes nor expect you to wade through a 
list of hundreds attempting to pick the dozen or so really 
good varieties. 
We've grown scores of them, quickly discarding those 
not measuring up to our rigid standards of excellence. 
This policy is prodigal of time and money but it saves 
YOU money because you can’t find a mediocre variety in 
this list. Every one is truly outstanding.
