HEMEROCALLIS 
Day lilies, or lemon lilies, as grandmother used to call them, have certainly come a long way since. 
Those old forerunners of today’s brilliantly variegated and improved specimens could be found at every 
doorstep or in every border. The modern giant-sized counterparts of those old favorites are even more 
popular, if that is possible. The sweet-scented air still hovers over the clump, but someone should re- 
christen these present-day wonders “rainbow-lilies” because they do run the gamut of hues and tones. 
There is no telling when the hybridist’s paint brush will stop. 
We have several very exciting varieties to offer you, but the most thrilling of them all is “Rocket,” an 
exclusive introduction of All America Garden Club. 
ROCKET Each $3.00; 3 for $7.50; 6 for $14.00 
The Rocket was produced especially for us by Mr. A. A. 
Yerex and Mr. Carleton Yerex of Newberg, Oregon. We 
firmly believe it is the most colorful and most beautiful 
new hemerocallis to be offered this season. We cannot de- 
scribe adequately the color-mixing that nature accomp- 
lished in Rocket. It is at one and the same time a riot and 
a blend, if such a paradox is possible. The reds, the flame, 
orange and yellows stripe the petals to create a pyro- 
technic cup of great size. Blooms are 54% inches across 
on 3 foot stems that spring from abundant deep-green 
foliage. In mild climates the foliage retains a crisp fresh- 
ness into the depth of winter. Our best description of this 
grand new lily is the color plate of Rocket. An exclusive 
introduction of All America Garden Club. 
FULVA ROSEA Each $2.50 
This is another very choice hemerocallis and very scarce. 
Fulva Rosea is a rare species from China introduced into 
this country by Dr. Stout of the New York Botanical 
Garden. This is a very beautiful flower of fine form and 
exquisite coral or rose-pink color. About 3 feet tall. Blooms 
in July and early August. 
SONNY Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 
This is a charming hemerocallis. Sonny is deeply ruffled 
and of heavy glossy texture. It stands out as an exceptional 
beauty in any collection—a greenish yellow that is dif- 
ferent and pleasing. The ruffled blooms stand 3 feet above 
the ground and pose with their faces upward through July 
and August. 
BAGDAD Each 65 cents 
A beautiful early blooming variety with five inch flowers 
on 31% foot stems. The June blooms have a purest orange 
throat with the outer petals a copper red over orange. The 
veins and mid-zone are a warm madder brown. 
BAY STATE Each 40 cents; 3 for $1.00 
A strong deep yellow reminiscent of the early “lemon” 
lilies but of higher color and more sheen. Blooms are large 
and plants are sturdy, growing to a height of three feet. 
Bay State blooms in July and early August. 
J. A. CRAWFORD Each 30 cents; 4 for $1.00 
A famous hemerocallis and rightly so. Popular for its 
huge cadmium yellow (pure gold) blooms of six inches 
or more. The blooms, crowning 3 foot stems, begin in 
late June and carry through to mid-July. One that should 
be in every border. 
J. R. MANN Each 30 cents; 4 for $1.00 
Another well-known variety that increases in demand with 
each passing year. The frosted buff and yellow blending 
gives this hemerocallis a compelling character. Blooms, 
on 31% foot stems, show in June and July. 
GEORGE YELD Each 50 cents 
Pale coral and rose laid on orange-gold backing. A strik- 
ing variety with very large blooms that are truly distinc- 
tive. It produces 3 foot stems and extends the hemerocallis 
season well into August. 
GYPSY Each 40 cents 
An exquisite pastel yellow ringed fulvous or coral red. 
This combination is most pleasing held aloft on the 4 foot 
strong stems. Gypsy hold forth in July and is a border 
wonder-worker. 
MIKADO Each 30 cents; 4 for $1.00 
A soft, soft orange with a purple-red eye. This is one of 
those very desirable hemerocallis that often has a double 
blooming season—first in July, then again in autumn. A 
very generous bloomer, too.
