FAIRMOUNT GARDENS 25 

STALWART (Cook 1935) A hybrid of tawny reddish bronze 
and orange tones. Large flowers with recurved petals, borne 
on tall well-branched stems. A free bloomer. July-Aug. 40 
in. $1.00 
STARFISH 40-212 (Nesmith 1944) A very open flaring bi- 
color with a fine narrow fluting on both petals and sepals. 
The petals are Corinthian red, the sepals have a fawn under- 
color touched with the same red. Tall and very floriferous 
with 25 to 30 flowers on each well branched stalk. Long sea- 
son of bloom. July-August. 40 in. $3.50 
STRONGHEART 42-11 (Nesmith 1943) A very recurving lily 
shaped flower with a deep orange chrome undercolor, almost 
completely covered with glowing English red, the orange 
chrome showing through the midrib and in a tiny border on 
the sepals as well as in the cup of the bloom. Stamens Eng- 
lish red. An unusual and brilliant flower with great carrying 
qualities in the garden. 25 to 30 buds. June 28th to Aug. Ist. 
40 in. $4.00 
SUNRAY 38-200 (Nesmith 1941). Deeper in color than Moon- 
ray, but equally lovely, this smoothly finished flower of apri- 
cot yellow has a purple zone in the throat and is a fitting 
companion for the paler Moonray. July-August. 36 in. $3.00 
SWEETBRIAR (Nesmith 1938) A lustrous flower, larger in 
size and much better formed and branched than the famous 
Fulva rosea. The fresh pink petals and sepals are well re- 
flexed showing a delicate yellow cup. The poise and perfection 
of form of the flowers lend added charm to this lovely hemero- 
eallis. 40 in. $10.00 
TARUGA (Stout 1943) Charming and delightful is this pale 
yellow with wide open flowers abundantly produced on tall 
well branched scapes. The petals are twisted at the tips as 
in Wau-Bun and this adds to the beauty of the blooms. 
July. 40 in. $4.00 
THERON (Stout 1934) A much heralded hemerocallis of dark 
red purple with great depth of color. The petals and sepals 
are recurving at the tips with a velvety flush extending down 
to the medium yellow cup. July. 34 in. $3.50 
THE SULTAN 39-185 (Nesmith 1944) A very dark sturdy 
red with a deep gold throat. The nearest color in Ridgway is 
burnt lake, but the flat finish in the color chart gives no idea 
of the depth of color and velvety finish of this deep mahogany- 
red. A self with broad compact petals and sepals, and excel- 
lent branching. July-August. 40 in. Net $15.00 
THOROBRED 39-129 (Nesmith 1941) Large lily-lke flowers 
of rich red borne on tall graceful stalks and very brilliant 
in the garden. I have found this variety valuable in breed- 
ing pinks and reds. July-Aug. 40 in. $7.00 
TOKAY 40-364 (Nesmith 1943) A large open flower of sal- 
mon with a deeper pink zone on the petals. The petals and 
sepals are medium in width and the blooms give the effect 
of widely flaring pink lilies. The stalks are widely branched 
well above the center. A hemerocallis that has great garden 
value not only for its beauty, but also for its late and long 
blooming season. Aug, 5th to Sept. 19th. 50 in. $4.00 
TRACERY 39-70 (Nesmith 1944) A very full broad petaled 
flower of pale Chalcedony yellow with a delicate lace like 
tracery of salmon buff in the center of the open cup shaped 
bloom. Lovely and delicate in color, but with exceptionally 
firm substance, and sturdy well branched stalks, this hemero- 
callis always attracts visitors. August. 40 in. $6.00 
VESPERS 38-161 (Nesmith 1941) There is a quiet elegance 
about this very pale cream that gives it great distinction 
and beauty. A deftly turned bloom of extremely heavy sub- 
stance and open flaring form with petals and sepals lightly 
ruffled at the edges. The flowers open late in the afternoon 
and remain fresh during the next day. When plants are 
established they throw second bloom stalks lasting’ into 
September. July-Sept. 39 in. $8.00 
VESTA (Stout 1930) Deep orange-yellow; lightly flushed with 
orange-red; glistening sheen. 2 ft. July-August. $1.50 
VULCAN (Stout 1937) A hybrid of deep maroon, with throat 
of deep orange overlaid with red. Ruffled petals with slightly 
lighter midrib. 3 ft. July. $3.00
