and continue until late in fall.

pinching back and removing faded flowers, a 
constant succession of bloom may be had 
until frost. Colors# white, pink and red.

HEMEROCALLIS FLAVA (Lemon Lily). These 
are among the oldest and best loved of 
garden plants. Very hardy and persisting; 
they need no winter protection and thrive 
in any good soil, preferring, however, a 
rich, moist loam. For garden borders and 
waterside planting, few perennials are more 
satisfactory. A good clump of this fine old 
lily, when blooming in June and July, lights 
up the border superbly with many tall stems 
of fragrant, waxen, clear yellow blooms, 
grows about 2 feet high. 
Each, 15e; 10 for $1.20, by parcel post.
