DAY LILIES 
Streamlined after 400 years, 
the day lily takes the spotlight 
in horticultural interest, for 
it has at last emerged 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 de- 
scriptive 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 cli- 
mates. 
Yes, day lilies offer new excite- 
ment 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 continu 
to grow in clumps for man~ 
years without any special cul. 
ture. They are indeed one of 
the easiest flowers to grow. 
Plant them in groups of three 
or more toward the middle of 
the large border; in rockeries; 
near fishponds, etc. Use only 
in- an informal manner, be- 
cause of their loose habit of 
growth. Plant in partial shade 
in warm climates; full sun or 
semi- shade otherwise. Pick 
off faded buds for best effect.
