Have you seen the new daylilies? They are a remarkable improvement over the 
older varieties, There is a great variation in the color patterns, from bicolors to 
contrasting eye zones on the petals, and the blending of many tints into attractive 
colorings. You cannot equal them for ease of growth and dependability of bloom. By 
selecting early and late varieties, you can have them in bloom from the middle of 
May to the 10th of August in our locality. Try either named varieties or seedlings 
in a naturalistic planting. You will be pleased by their performance, Each year 
new improved varieties in the different colors are added to the list. 
The plants need at least a half-day'ts sun to bloom, and are at their best in a 
sunny location. Heat and dryness affect them little, but some water should be given 
during dry spells to receive maximum size of bloom, Allow 2 feet between plants for 
normal growth. Local orders can be dug any time, but mail orders are’ sent only in 
early spring or after the blooming season, Several kinds often bloom again in fall 
and are marked "X"* before the name. Many varieties are delightfully fragrant, 
COLOR LISTING: Varieties are placed in color groups, The Betscher hybrids were used 
as a basis for numbering varieties as to depth of color in the yellow and orange 
shades, as they are standard varieties in a wide color range, and begin with ‘1," 
Those labeled “"O" are lighter, Other varieties having the same color as any of these, 
are given the same number. Nearly all varieties having the same number may be 
entirely different in form, size of flower and height. The numbers aid only in color 
selection. Any comment as to the value of these numbers would be appreciated, as no 
ons else hag it, and it was an idea of mine to help you select different colors,
