To say that they are the most adaptable of perennials is expressing it mildly. 
They grow in lime or acid, wet or dry, sandy or clay soils; in sun or shade; in hot 
or cold climates. What is more, they are free from diseases and pests—truly 
faithful stand-bys for your wartime garden. And they will continue to grow and 
flourish and multiply for many years to come. 
Beauty in Your Wartine Garden 
Daylilies Are Tailor-made for Your Wartime Garden 
They require no cultivation; no care. Anyone who grows Daylilies will say they are the 
easiest to grow of all perennials. You can relax on a shaded porch, reach for a cooling drink, 
and still enjoy the beauty of Daylilies. 
Many gardens lack the permanent summer color which Daylilies provide. For, despite 
their ease of culture, Daylilies have a dainty charm all their own. Only the Daylily combines 
such airy grace and fragile-appearing beauty mm flowers of unsuspected stamina. It is im- 
possible to describe the translucent beauty of the newer Daylilies. 
Proper selection of varieties will give you flowers from spring to fall in a marvelous range of 
color, from the soft yellow tone of Patricia through peach, pink and red tones into the dark 
maroon of Theron. 
Plant Daylilies for the duration, and you will enjoy them for the duration of your lifetime.

ready transforming our middle western gardens; when

an even greater effect’”’ says Dr. E. ANDERSON, Geneticist 
of the Missouri Botanical Garden, St. Louis, Mo.
