COLOR COMBINATIONS 
BABY TEARS—This dainty 4-inch flower has yellow 
sepals and rosy-red ruffled petals with a yellow mid- 
rib. As many as 25 or 30 buds on a stem. One of 
the daintiest and most loved Daylilies in our entire 
fields. A simply “must have” for profusion of bloom. 
Height 3% feet. April, May, and June. 
DRESS REHEARSAL—Offered again after an absence 
of almost 3 years while growing enough stock. Petals 
and sepals are of a salmon-pink with old rose eye 
zone. The throat is yellow. These large widely-open. 
full blooms will give added beauty to any garden. 
Keeps well in evenings. 3% feet. May and June. 
EDITH RUSSELL—This is the first Daylily I have 
ever seen which has sepals darker than its petals. Its 
wide petals completely overlap the sepals and a part 
of the next petal. The color is a shade of yellow I 
have never before seen — not chrome, cream, nor 
lemon, but exactly the color of sulphur with rose 
veins, profusely ruffled. The huge open throat is a 
slightly deeper shade of sulphur. Sepals are the 
deepest rose sprinkled with gold dust, as though a 
jeweler had taken powdered gold and done this work. 
The flower holds up. Blooms 4% inches. Height 3 
feet. May and June. 
J. T. RUSSELL—Blooms are 6 inches across. Petals of 
lemon-yellow with deep cinnamon-red mark on each 
one; sepals clear lemon, and a very profuse bloomer. 
This one will be remembered always, one of my real 
favorites. 3 feet. May and June. 
MARGUARITE PALMER—This beautiful flower was 
named for the garden editor of The Houston Press. 
It’s bloom is a lovely well-rounded thing with wide 
over-lapping petals and is an unusual shade. While the 
color is very intense, it is not as dark a red as some, 
but has the loveliest cardinal red eye zone. Its sepals 
are yellow overcast with the same rich red. Its throat 
is yellow. A real “prize”. A lovely fast growing 
Daylily and a most prolific bloomer. 4%4-inch bloom. 
Height 2% feet. May and June. 
RUSSELL’S MINUET—For you who wish a dwarf lily 
with large 41-inch blooms for your rock garden or 
the foreground of your border, this is it. The wide 
overlapping petals are rich rose, ruffled, and with a 
wide yellow stripe down the'center of each. The sepals 
are pale canary. The stems stand stiff and erect, and 
are simply enveloped in bloom. 20 to 24 inches. May 
and June, 
SUSAN—The flower is 6 inches across. The ruffled 
petals are a rich brilliant red with a canary stripe 
in the center of each. The sepals are yellow in the 
center with a rosy red outer edge and to enhance this 
color combination further, there is a huge star-shaped 
green throat. A very profuse bloomer, and so strik- 
ingly different. A fast multiplier. 3% feet. June 
and July. 
TAJ MAHAL-—I think the name befitting this Daylily. 
Its color is a rich chrome with a velvet sheen and a 
wide eye zone of the richest purple. The fact it only 
grows 2 feet high and is a blaze of bloom, makes it 
one of the loveliest jewels in our fields. 5-inch bloom. 
Very early. April and May. 

LEMON and GOLD 
ANNIS VICTORIA RUSSELL—This is surely one of QUEEN OF GONZALES—This is a solid self. The 
the most beautiful Daylilies that ever existed, and 
the most profuse bloomer. The color is solid canary- 
yellow. As many as 30 buds are not unusual on a 
single stem. The foliage is dark green and crinkled. 
Blooms on established plants are 7 inches across. 
Height 3 feet. May and April. 
JOY RUSSELL—This is the tallest of the really pale 
lemons. The 5-inch bloom of perfect texture opens 
full; the color is much paler than those usually 
described as lemon. Its height, after being estab- 
lished, is something not to be overlooked when plan- 
ning your garden. Keeps well. 4 feet. April, May, 
and June. 
MOONGATE—A lovely canary yellow of the firmest 
texture: five-inch blooms with wide twisted petals, 
the. sepals recurve, and it has a lovely green throat. 
Height 3% feet. April and May. 
MRS. B. F. BONNER—This Daylily, in my opinion, 
beats any pale lemon in existence today. It is the 
color of “Hyperion”, but a much larger lily with wider 
petals and as for its loveliness, it has them all beat 
in every respect. Better texture, lasts longer in the 
evening and has a much longer blooming season, and 
is far more profuse in its bloom than “Hyperion”. 
Blooms 6 inches in diameter, its height about 2% 
to 3 feet. May and June. 
whole flower is about the color of chrome, being rich 
deep yellow, and the wide overlapping petals open 
full. The 6-inch bloom remains longer after being 
cut than any I have ever seen, and the plant is an 
almost constant bloomer. This variety is the earliest 
of the giants to bloom. Height 3 feet. April, May, 
and again in midsummer. 
SAN PEDRO—A beautiful fully 7-inch true canary 
color. This lovely thing remains open at night and 
can be used as a cut flower until almost midnight. 
Its petals are a shade of canary gold that is the 
richest color one seeks in selecting a canary bird for 
beauty. Its sepals are a shade slightly deeper. It is 
of the thickest brittle substance with 80 to 40 buds 
on a stem. I do not care how many Daylilies, you 
possess in yellows, this is simply a “must have”, 7- 
inch bloom. Height 34% feet. May, June, and July. 
SIDE SHOW—Widest petals of buff yellow with faint 
markings. Almost a fully rounded flower. 5-inch 
bloom. Height 2% feet. Blooms twice and the second 
blooming season has a tendency to throw almost all 
double flowers—an unusual thing of sheer beauty. 
April, May, again in July and August.
