WILLIAM T. WOOD DAYLILIES 
Although Mr. William T. Wood is better 
known as a grower of camellias, and is 
chairman of the committee on Exhibitions 
and Awards for the American Camellia 
Society, he has been hybridizing daylilies 
as a hobby since 1934. Every year he 
blooms approximately a thousand new 
seedlings, but Neon is his first daylily to 
be placed on the market. We predict ex- 
citing things to come from Mr. Wood.

Dade originations are late-blooming, start-

rieties are finishing. A great many of
