FESTIVAL (Stout) 
A bi-color of orange and “English red’. The throat, the mid- 
stripe of the petals and the sepals are orange, the sepals having 
a brown overlay near the edges. The petals are red except for 
the mid-stripe. The ends of the petals are twisted and com- 
pressed as in Wau-Bun. Deciduous. 3% feet. $2.00; 3 for $5.00 
FIREFLY (Bechtold)

stems. It blooms in June in the colder sections of the country 
but in California flowers freely over a long period. 2 feet. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GARNET ROBE (Milliken) 
This interesting daylily has an exceptional combination of 
characteristics; it is glowing like an ember and it is also rich 
and velvety. The color of both petals and sepals is deep red 
(deep oxblood red, Ridgway). This deep coloring, which does 
not fade, runs to within an inch of the bottom of the throat, the 
lower inch being greenish yellow. The flower is of medium size 
(5 inches) and opens wide. We do not have, nor have we seen 
any other hemerocallis in the dark tones to challenge it. Ever- 
green. 3 feet. $25.00 
GEORGE KELSO (Traub) 
Splendid large flowers (5% inches) whose beauty is en- 
hanced by the pronounced ruffling of the petals. The soft light 
orange coloring is suffused with bronze, the sepals being some- 
what lighter in color than the petals. Vigorous, early blooming, 
and evergreen. 36 inches. $2.00; 3 for $5.00

waist high and the flowers remain open in the evening. They 
give an airy touch in the garden and are useful in flower ar- 
rangements. June and July in the East, into the fall in Cali- 
fornia. Deciduous. 3 feet. $1.00; 3 for $2.50

JUBILEE (Stout) 
The flowers are large and are borne on well-branched, 3%4- 
foot scapes. The color is light cadmium except for the con- 
spicuous eye zone of English red. 
We do not recommend this for the colder sections of the 
country, however, as it has proved rather tender at the New 
York Botanical Gardens but it should do well all through the 
South and along the Pacific Coast. Evergreen. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
KWANSO 
This is a selected symmetrical type of the double Kwanso. 
We have been growing it for several years and it is noticeably 
better in appearance than the more common type, which we 
have discarded. The color is orange flushed with red. De- 
ciduous. 3% feet. 50c; 3 for $1.25; 10 for $3.50 
LINDA 
A fascinating flower in the rosy pink shades. The petals are 
creped along the edges and are golden, lightly washed with 
rose. The throat is bordered with deeper rose. The alternating 
sepals are clear cream in color. Through summer. Deciduous. 
214 feet. $1.00; 3 for $2.50; 10 for $7.50 
LUSTROUS (Nesmith) 
A very attractive daylily. The abundant flowers are large 
and rosy and have a soft sheen growing on well-branched 
stalks. It deserves a conspicuous place in the garden. De- 
ciduous. 3% feet. $4.00 
MARGARET (Cook) 
The entire flower, even to the bottom of the throat, is a soft 
light yellow—‘‘buff yellow”. It is large and well finished. De- 
ciduous. 3% feet. $2.00; 3 for $5.00 

MATADOR (Nesmith) 
Pleasing Jarge brownish-red flowers with broad velvety pet- 
als. The sepals are the same shade as the petals but are not 
velvety. Deciduous. 3 feet. $2.50; 3 for $6.50 
MIKADO (Stout) 
The best known and most distinct of Dr. Stout’s older origi- 
nations. The flower is a fine orange, the three petals having a 
banding of dark red-purple. 36 inches, summer. Semi-ever- 
green. 35c; 3 for 90c; 12 for $3.25 
MINNIE (Hayward) 
A rich mahogany flower with a glint of crimson which at- 
tracts attention at once. The flowers are not large (3 inches) 
but although the coloring is deep it still has life. An orange 
throat lights the center of the flower. 3 feet. Deciduous. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50; 10 for $7.50 
MONARCH (Stout) 
A lemon yellow flower of especially attractive shape. The 
flower stays open into the evening, which makes it desirable 
for planting in patios or where barbeques are held. 36 inches. 
Deciduous. $1.00; 3 for $2.50; 10 for $7.50 
MOONBEAM (H. P. Sass)

cup at the base of the flower. The color is smooth and evenly 
spread. Deciduous. 3 feet. $5.00 
MRS. JOHN J. TIGERT (Watkins) 
A very striking brilliant red flower of large size and flaring 
shape which was developed at the University of Florida. De- 
ciduous. Summer. 3 feet. $1.50; 3 for $3.75 
MRS. J. R. MANN 
This is not to be confused with J. R. Mann, which is entirely 
different. We think that this beautiful deep yellow with its 
fluted petals and flaring sepals has been much overlooked. It 
puts on a very fine display. Evergreen. 3 feet. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50
