THE NEW HYBRIDS 
Now! New thrills with DAY LILIES 
exciting new colors . . . mammoth flowers--- 
something truly NEW for your garden! 
Streamlined after 400 years, the day lily takes the spotlight in horticultural 
interest, for it has at last ernerged from an ugly duckling into a swan of the 
flower world. 
Today’s flowers are no longer small, in shades of yellow only, but now can be 
had in huge flowers in shades of pink, red, mahogany-red, brown, and greatly 
improved oranges and yellow. And today’s flowers stay open, too, so that the 
name day lily is no longer descriptive of the flower. 
These beautiful flowers thrive almost anywhere, in sun or shade, in acid or lime 
soil. They have no disease and are hardy in cold and warm climates. 
Yes, day lilies offer new excitement for your garden. Plant them 18 to 24 inches 
apart in solid beds or borders, or in among your shrubs. You can have day 
lilies in bloom four to five months in the colder climates, and much longer in 
warmer areas. Wet or dry, acid or lime, sun or shade, sand or clay, these plants 
will hold their own and continue to grow in clumps for many years without any 
special culture. They are ideed one of nature’s easiest flowers to grow.
