almost perfect border or landscape plant, never have to be dug and replanted. All 
that you must do for them is keep the weeds down and water. They will even choke 
out most of the weeds. A heavy leafy mulch helps every way. 
In spite of our lack of sufficient labor to give ideal care to our Daylilies, (they had 
weeds hoed out only once or twice last summer) our plants have thrived and increased 
so well that this spring we are able to make some startling reductions in our prices.

floral display. Approximate flowering dates are indicated.

Hymenocallis. True Spider Lilies. Many botanists have included the Ismene in 
this genus but this is not accepted by the better recent botanical writers, therefore we 
shall list Ismene as a separate and distinct genus as evidently they should be. 
Hymenocallis sp. unknown. Tropical Spider Lily. This appears to me to be the 
same as H. rotata and H. tenuiflora and these names must have been given to the same 
species. The flowers have long narrow petals and long stamens which give a spidery 
appearance. ‘This species has immense pure, snow white flowers that are exquisitely 
fragrant. As a pot plant it is a fine companion for Amaryllis and requires about the 
same culture practice except that it can be kept evergreen. Culture. This tropical 
species can be easily grown outside anywhere that an Amaryllis can and with the same 
culture. Plant 4” deep. Full sun or slight shade. In the north it can be grown in the 
garden in summer and dug and stored over winter, covering large roots with soil. The 
most satisfactory way is in pots. Flowers much more profusely the second year. 50c. 
Largest, 75c. 
Ismene. Specially Priced . 
We have an immense crop of these this year and have decided to let our retail 
customers have them on quantity lots at wholesale prices, and plus cost of postage and 
expense of packing on the smaller quantities. The Ismenes are very desirable cut flowers 
and add exquisite fragrance to their white beauty. 
Culture. They can be grown anywhere in the U.S. in the garden. In the north 
they can be planted 6” deep and remain in the ground with a mulch protection over
