Hemeroeallis (Day Lily) 
Plant Day Lilies for long time display. 
There are few plants easier to grow than the day lily, and 
few give a more generous return, but it is handicapped by its 
name Hemerocallis, “The beauty of a day.’’ It may be that the 
majority of the family last only a day, but the number of blossoms 
on a stem is so great that the plant remains in flower for weeks. 
It will grow almost anywhere, requires hardy any attention, and 
the majority of varieties are sweet scented. They have a wide 
color range through all the shades of yellow to the reddish- 
oranges.

slightly flushed with purple. An excellent plant for the rock- 
garden. Nice two year old plants 50c each, 6 for $2.50.

HESPERALOE, Engelmanni. A _ pink-flowered Cinderella of the 
Yucca tribe, until recently known only those who were privi- 
leged to visit great botanical gardens and view this plant grow- 
ing under glass. But today we have evidence of the hardiness 
of this plant well north, though it is native to Texas and Mexi- 
co. It has done well outdoors for seven years at Tulsa, Okla- 
homa, where occasional severe winters are experienced, the 
thermometer dropping to several degrees below zero for sever- 
al days during the year. 
Last May one Hesperaloe sent up eleven blooming stalks, 
nine feet in height, that bent gracefully under the weight of 
thousands of unopened bells, coral pink in color. The foliage 
of the plants is swordlike, reminding one of a large Yucca. 
Strong plants $1.00 each, 3 for $2.50.
