HEMEROCALLIS SEEDS 
Hemerocallis seeds may be planted any time after ripening, up tc 
early summer the next year. Planted during late fall or winter in 
the open, they germinate in the spring and are thought to do better, 
thus exposed to winter. If germinated in fall or winter inside and 
transplanted to the garden in spring, they often flower sooner. Germina- 
tion is slow and variable. 
Out of 100 seedlings one may expect 2-3 good ones, though all are 
interesting in showing some resemblance to their parents, but no 
two just alike. Out of a thousand there may be one or two good 
enough to name and introduce. Flowers in 2 to 8 years. 
I would like to have others enjoy raising new daylilies from seed, 
as I have for years, so some of the 50,000 seeds I harvest annually 
are offered at the following prices. The more choice kinds are 
pollinated each day, May to Oct., from the best kinds then in bloom.
