ROYAL RUBY (Nesmith) 
The coloring of this flower makes universal appeal. It is a 
glowing deep ruby-red which runs into the depths of the 
flower. The supply is never adequate, and we may be sold 
out rather early in the season. Deciduous. 3 feet. $7.50 
RUBY SUPREME (Wheeler) 
This is in the front rank of the daylilies. A sweepstake win- 
ner at the National Daylily Show soon after it was introduced 
in 1940 and again the following year, it will remain, for years 
to come, a treasure for those who possess it. The wide open 
(7-inch) flowers are a luminous ruby red, the throat is green- 
gold. A delicate gold line traces its way through the middle 
of the petal. The plant is very vigorous and evergreen. 40 
inches. $7.50

colored portion. Summer. Evergreen. 314 feet.

SAN JUAN (Traub)

You may or may not have heard about the new pink-toned 
daylilies. They are not plentiful but many of them are very 
beautiful and Sweetbriar is one of the best of them. The flow- 
ers are bright, well formed and large. Both petals and sepals 
are rosy-pink and open wide, showing the soft yellow throat.

Certainly one of the most deeply colored daylilies. It lends 
variety to a planting of yellows and injects the element of sur- 
prise. On cloudy days the flowers look almost black but the

coming greenish in its deep and narrowed portion. The flower 
is large, open, with the petals twisting slightly at their tips.
