HEMEROCALLIS 
The search for good red Hemerocallis is in full swing throughout the United States. 
We have been in the hybridizing end of the Hemerocallis game for the past ten years and 
have found a few crosses which give a high percentage of plants with flowers in varying 
degrees of red. The hand work involved and the limited number of seeds harvested from 
so limited a series of crosses makes this seed rather expensive, but when you consider 
that some of the plants you raise from your seeds may rival varieties on the market for 
prices like $10.00 and $15.00 per plant, it is well worth the price. Seeds will be shipped 
after harvest in August. Packet of 10 plump viable seeds from parents which give a high 
percentage of red offspring — all hand pollernated .......scesecsssssssssssnsninsnssennmenssssnismnnaenensee $1.00
