ane Re 
The previous, No. 31, is: Descriptive Catalogue of Hemerocallis 
Clones, 1893 to 1948, compiled by J. B. S. Norton, M. F. Stuntz, 
and W. R. Ballard. June 1919. 
CHANGES FROM SPRING PRICE LIST, 1949 
J. B. S. Norton, 4922 Fortieth Place, Hyattsville, Md. 
Due to moving part of the garden, prices will be 25% lower 
than those announced in the spring list, during August and Septem- 
ber. These two months are generally considered about the best 
time to plant daylilies. 
The following on the spring list are not now available: Carol 
Ann, Narcissa, Lady Gay, Miss Priscilla, Baronet, Citrina, Gertrude. 
A new extra early one is here published for the first time as 
Aprilet, having been under the number AP for several years. This 
clone has been as good as other very early ones, but this year was 
not only the first to bloom, but the best formed and most beauti- 
ful orange yellow daylily in the April garden. The scapes are be- 
tween 1 and 2 feet high; the flowers open wide to about 3 inches. 
$3.00 each. 
This may be a good place to note that the very early daylilies 
are often not seen in bloom because the buds are killed by late 
frosts before they get high enough above the ground to be noticed. 
Covering on cold nights will extend the hemerocallis season a week 
or two earlier. 
A few Garden Lady plants may now be had at $5.00 each. Also 
some Hyperion at 50 cents. 
The correct name for plants disseminated from my garden since 
1941 as “Gertrude,” seems to be Genevieve, but I do not know where 
to find any of the true Gertrude for comparison.
