Hemerocallis - Day Lilies 
We introduce a new race created from the old favorite “Lemon Lily”—new colors—new forms—prolonged flow- 
ering periods and varieties that remain in flower in the evening. 
From early spring until frost this group of “Lilies” demands no special care in the garden. They are unsur- 
passed as to hardiness, freedom from disease and insect pests. Their five-month flowering period of bloom—still 
more for a southern garden where they will bloom two or three times a year—makes them valuable as a cut flower, 
in the perennial border, on slopes or banks to prevent soil erosion and for naturalizing in the garden or field. 
The collection that we offer has been carefully selected from the best varieties available today. Special atten- 
tion has been given to the new introductions of Dr. A. B. Stout, the renowned authority whose work this past 30 
years at the New York Botanical Gardens has given us many of the finest variations in colors and prolonged flow- 
ering periods. 
Of easy and simple culture, they demand a reasonably moist soil, fairly rich, and prefer, but do not require, 
slight shade.
