O UR main interest is the production of new 
daylily (Hemerocallis) varieties, of which several 
hundred selections out of over 50,000 seedlings 
which we have grown, may be seen blooming in our 
garden between the last of April and frost in 
October. Special times to see many kinds in flower 
are about May 20,June 15, and July 10. 
Nearly 300 varieties, new and old originated 
by others are also grown. Those offered in the 
following list have proved to be among the best 
for their respective colors and seasons, Many 
others not listed can be supplied in very limited 
quantity, and some of these will doubtless replace 
some of those in the list when they have been 
observed longer. 
The time of flowering is given for near Wash- 
ington, Dam. 
Daylilies may be planted almost any time and 
do well under a variety of conditions. April and 
August are probably the best planting times. 
The prices given below are for divisions shipped 
prepaid; they are 20% less for delivery at the 
garden or on orders of $10 or more.
