Our 1942 and 1943 Daylily 
Introductions 
HESE introductions, we believe, will remain among the best in Hemerocallis 
for many years to come. This season we eliminated from our list many varie- 
ties introduced by us in the past, because our stock was simply too low. Those of 
you who wish our varieties not now appearing on the list may write us, and in some 
cases we can supply a few plants. The stock of those listed now is very limited, and 
delivery will not be made until after April 1, 1945, to allow time for what stock 
we have left to grow into the kind of plants we wish to send out. Plants ordered 
now will be reserved for you until you wish shipment made after the above date; 
in our opinion this is one of the best times to plant anyway. 
NOTE: These varieties listed as our 1942 and 1943 introductions will positively 
not be sent out from our nursery until the beginning of April, 1945, Reserve yours 
early; otherwise you may be disappointed. All others listed in this catalog will 
be sent now or at any time you best like to plant.

BLACK PRINCE 
Are you looking for a real dark red? Here is one that is almost black and with a velvety 
satin sheen impossible to describe. The 41-inch bloom has very wide petals and sepals of an 
even color; the throat has a small yellow cup. There is real life in this one. 31% ft. April, May. 
See page 12 for illustration. $6.00. 
JOY RUSSELL 
This is the tallest of the really pale lemons. The 5-inch bloom of perfect texture opens full; 
the color is much paler than those usually described as lemon. Its height, after being established, 
is something not to be overlooked when planning your garden. 5 ft. April, May, June. $3.00. 
MISS HOUSTON 
A real pink, both petals and sepals, with a slightly deeper eye zone and a yellow throat. This 
is a tall Hemerocallis, with flowers 41% inches across, and when planted with various colors is 
simply breath-taking. Opens full. 414 ft. May, June. See front cover for illustration. $15.00.
