26 FAIRMOUNT GARDENS 

SU-LIN 40-215 (Nesmith 1941) The name is Chinese and 
freely translated means “a little bit of something precious,” 
therefore it seems a fitting name for this lovely bi-color of 
pale mauve and creamy yellow. The flowers are open and 
flaring with petals of orchid pink and sepals of light yellow. 
July-Aug. 35 in. $8.00 
SUNRAY 388-200 (Nesmith 1941). Deeper in color than Moon- 
ray, but equally lovely, this smoothly finished flower of apri- 
cot yellow has a purple zone in the throat and is a good 
companion for the paler Moonray. July-Aug. 36 in. $3.00 
SWEETBRIAR (Nesmith 1938) Lustrous flower, larger in 
size and much better formed and branched than Fulfa rosea. 
The fresh pink petals and sepals are well reflexed showing a 
delicate yellow cup. The perfection of form of the flowers 
lends added charm to this lovely hemerocallis. 40 in. $8.00 
TARA 39-29 (Nesmith 1940) Deeper in color than Sweet- 
briar, but of similar form, and equally lovely. The full flaring 
flowers are lustrous rose red, and bloom in great profusion. 
July-Aug. 36 in. $4.00 
TARUGA (Stout 1943) Charming and delightful is this pale 
yellow with wide open flowers abundantly produced on tall 
well branched scapes. The petals are twisted at the tips as 
in Wau-Bun. July. 40 in. $3.00 
TAPERLIGHT 40-439 (Nesmith 1947) Cream in color, this 
floriferous hemerocallis is especially good for the front of the 
border. The flowers are large, and very well formed with lush 
green foliage coming up above the lowest flowers. Landscape 
architects say it is especially valuable for garden effect. July- 
Aug. 36 in, $4.00 
THERON (Stout 1934) A much heralded hemerocallis of dark 
red purple with great depth of color, The petals and sepals 
are recurving at the tips with a velvety flush extending down 
to the medium yellow cup. July. 34 in. $3.00 
THE SULTAN 39-185 (Nesmith 1944) Very dark red with 
a gold throat. The color in Ridgway is burnt lake, but the 
flat finish in the color chart gives no idea of the depth of 
color and velvety finish of this deep red. A self with broad 
compact petals and sepals. July-Aug. 36 in. $10.00 
THOROBRED 39-129 (Nesmith 1941) Large lily-like flowers 
of rich red borne on tall graceful stalks and very brilliant 
in the garden. I have found this variety valuable in breed- 
ing pinks and reds. July-Aug. 40 in. $7.00 
TOKAY 40-364 (Nesmith 1943) Large open flower of sal- 
mon with a deeper pink zone on the petals. The petals and 
sepals are medium in width and the blooms give the effect 
of flaring lilies. The stalks are widely branched. A hemero- 
callis that has great garden value for its late blooming season. 
Aug.-Sept. 50 in, $4.00 
TRACERY 39-70 (Nesmith 1944) A very full broad petaled 
flower of pale Chalcedony yellow with a delicate lace like 
tracery of salmon buff in the center of the open cup shaped 
bloom. Lovely and delicate in color, but with exceptionally 
firm substance, and sturdy well branched stalks, this hemero- 
callis always attracts visitors. Aug. 40 in. $6.00 
VESPERS 38-161 (Nesmith 1941) There is a quiet elegance 
about this very pale cream that gives it great distinction 
and beauty. A deftly turned bloom of extremely heavy sub- 
stance and open flaring form with petals and sepals lightly 
ruffled at the edges. The flowers open late in the afternoon 
and remain fresh during the next day. When plants are 
established they throw second bloom stalks lasting into 
September. July-Sept. 39 in. $8.00 
VULCAN (Stout 1987) A hybrid of deep maroon, with throat 
of deep orange overlaid with red. Ruffled petals with slightly 
lighter midrib. 3 ft. July. $3.00 
WAU-BUN (Stout 1930) Uniform cadmium-yellow, outer 
half over-cast delicate fulvous red; petals large and broad; 
freely curving contour of petals is unique. Excellent. 3 ft. 
July-Aug. $1.50
