Arow te Hse DAYLILIES 

No special spot is required for Daylilies. They thrive from Boston to Los 
Angeles, Seattle to Miami; in lime or acid, sandy or clay soils; sun or light shade; 
in hot or cold, wet or dry climates. 
The new colors of the Stout Hybrids let you use an artist’s palette of tones. 
You can select two-toned flowers like Caballero, flowers with peach tints, pastel 
tones, blended tones, or solid colors from the soft yellow of Patricia to the dark 
maroon of Vulcan. ; 
The habits and character of Daylilies make them one of the most useful of all 
perennials. The plants are bushy to the ground with graceful foliage that blends 
well with other leaves, and without cultivation or attention faithfully produce 
handsome flowers each year. 
A mass of Daylilies will take your eyes away from an unsightly view. A Day- 
lily will fit many a gap where “nothing will grow,” or where you just haven’t 
bothered to fill in with a plant. Use the Daylily as your “handy man.”’ 
By choosing varying colors and a complete period of bloom, you will never 
have too many.
