FOREWORD 
The great family of Hemerocallis ranging in height from six inches to 
five feet, in time of blooming from early May to late October, and in color 
range from palest yellow to deep red, has furnished plants known and loved

has been greatly extended and passes through every conceivable gradation and 
combination of soft yellow, brilliant gold, orange and pink, deepening to 
maroon. Their foliage is handsome and effective, and with their different

indispensable to the hardy border.
