Hemenracatlis 
Hemerocallis (daylilies) are still unknown to many gardeners. Their charm 
lies not only in their long period of bloom but their ability to grow in full sun to par- 
tial shade, in poor to rich soil, and with practically no attention once they have been 
set out. The taller sorts should be used at the back of the border, medium heights in 
the center, and the dwarfs or low-growing type at the border front or in the rock 
garden.
