HEMEROCALLIS 
...DAYLILIES 
DEPENDABLE FLOWERS FOR PERMANENT GARDENS 
Daylilies are most satisfactory garden flowers. Their lovely lily- 
like flowers are borne on graceful stems well above their masses 
of grassy leaves. They are very easy to grow inmost  —. 
any good garden soil, in either full sun or light 
shade. The flowers are in all tones of yellow, from 
light to deep, rich orange, bright reds, deep browns 
and combinations of these. Many are also delight- 
fully fragrant. 
They are essential plants for the perennial border, where the 
flowers and foliage make a substantial contribution. By careful 
selection of early and late blooming varieties, bloom may be had 
from spring to fall. Place the taller kinds toward the back, lower 
growing toward the front. Daylilies are especially effective planted 
in clumps or grouped about garden pools. Their ability to flower in 
light shade makes their use practical when other garden flowers are 
not satisfactory. 
JUBILEE (Stout) 
This daylily, which is described and illustrated in Dr. Stout's 
book ‘Daylilies’, Macmillan, 1934, is now to be made available 
for the first time to beautify our gardens. 
The flowers are large and are borne on well branched, 3¥2- 
foot scapes. The color is light cadmium except for the conspicu- 
ous eye zone of English red. 
Dr. Stout obtained Jubilee bv crossing a seedling of H. auranti- 
aca x H. fulva wild from China with Mikado. 
With us in California Jubilee has grown vigorously and flow- 
ered freely. Its coloring is pleasingly clean. 
We do not recommend this for the colder sections of the country, 
however, as it has proved rather tender at the New York Bo- 
tanical Gardens but it should do well all through the South and 
along the Pacific Coast. Evergreen. $3.00 
AFTERGLOW (Stout). If you like the soft pastel colors you will be 
delighted with Afterglow. The medium-sized flowers are pale buff, 
tinted ‘with sunset hues which become pinker and more pronounced
