LITTLE IMP. Dormant 
This gorgeous canary-yellow is similar to 
Gold Dust but blooms about two months later 
and is certainly more graceful. The plant is not 
so stiff but droops gracefully, like many of the 
giants. Its 3-inch blooms are more open. 
Petals are light canary-yellow and sepals deeper 
buttercup-yellow. Ht. 15 in. May, June. $1.50. 
PARAGON. Dormant 
A beautiful soft shade of yellow heavily over- 
cast brown-red, with semi-ruffled petals and 
twisted sepals, slightly recurved. Including the 
bloom, it is only 15 inches tall and is certainly 
one of the best of the dwarfs. Keeps very well. 
Shape similar to Wau-Bun. 4)%-inch bloom. 
May, June. $1.50. 

RED RAPTURE. Dormant 
This rich brown-red Daylily is only 3 inches 
across. The deep rich yellow throat extends 
through the petals and the sepals are yellow, 
slightly overcast with the same color. The first 
semi-bicolor in the midget class. Ht. only 12 in. 
May, June. $1.50. 
SALOME. Evergreen 
Buttercup-yellow, deeply overcast rose, with 
a darker rose eye zone and solid yellow sepals. 
The 3-inch bloom, with its extra thick texture 
is beautiful to behold. Ht., including bloom, 
only 12 in. May, June. $1.50.

Daylilies you need some of these Midget varieties.
