Dear Sir: 
Among the next daylilies, I expect to introduce in the 
near future, I have selected 17 of the most outstanding to offer 
to some of my clients in the several sections of our country prior 
to listing them in my catalogue. 
These 17 varieties were selected from more than 100,000 
Hybrids, the result of many years selective breeding. They will 
just about cover the entire color range found only in the newer 
Hybrids. I have never introduced a daylily for less than $2.00, 
and up to $20.00 per plant, but I am going to offer you any seven 
that you select from this list for $5.00 or the entire collection 
of 17 for $10.00 Postpaid. They will be strong vigorous plants, 
and if planted now, yes even in the summer, they will give you 
well established clumps for next seasons bloom, and what a garden 
you will have for just a few dollars. It is just that I want you 
to become better acquainted in what I have to offer in daylilies. 
The blooming habits of these varieties, as well as the 
keeping quality of the bloom were of course taken into the most 
careful consideration. This offer is good for 30 days only, and 
in no wise can we send more than one collection to one single cli- 
ent. If you wish to take advantage of this offer, but are not 
ready to plant at this time, ycu may send your order now, and the 
plants will be reserved for you until you want delivery, within 
one year from this date. 
Very truly yours, 
H. M. Russell
