DAYLILIES (Hemeroeallis ) 

DAUNTLESS (Stout) Each 50c, 3 for $1.25 
3 feet. July, August. Pale yellowish orange. Large wide over- 
lapping petals. Fine. 
DAWN (Perry) Each 60c, 3 for $1.50 
38 inches. It is just about impossible to describe this new Eng- 
lish introduction, for it is such an unusual color that it is diffi- 
cult to check it even with the official color standards. Perhaps 
the originator’s color description, as “rose-buff” is as good as 
any. Flower over 5 inches across. July, August. 
DELICATISSIMA (Bechtold, 1941) (24 in. E.) (Wild, 1941) 
Each 30c, 3 for 75ce 
Large golden yellow flowers with a smattering of dark chocolate 
powdered midway on petals, which are pointed, star-like. Blooms 
stand well open and begin last of May. Floriferous and very 
pretty. 
DELIGHTFUL DUET (Bechtold, 1943) (28 in. M.) (Wild, 1943) 
Each $1.00, 3 for $2.50 
Reds and yellow bicolor (petals red, sepals yellow). If planted 
in spot where it can enjoy full forenoon shade with afternoon 
sunshine it creates a gorgeous clump. A vigorous July bloomer. 
D. D. WYMAN (Betscher) Each 40c, 3 for $1.00 
44 inches. One of our largest and finest daylilies. The individ- 
ual flowers measure 6 inches across and the plant being loaded 
with blooms. The color is deep, rich golden yellow, with a brick 
red spot on each petal. July and August. 
DOLLY VARDEN (Nesmith, 1939) Each $1.75 
Open full flower of Chinese coral pink with lines of rose on 
petals and sepals blended into a creamy yellow throat. June- 
Juy. 3% feet. 
DOMINION (Stout) Each $2.00 
Extra large full flowers of rich red coloring in concentric three 
toned pattern. When established, it often throws second bloom 
stalks. 38 inches. July. 
DUMORTIERI (Species) Each 25c, 3 for 50c 
Orange shaded brown on outside; early blooming. 
EDITH RUSSELL (Russell, 1946) Each $4.00 
This is the first daylily I have ever seen which has sepals dark- 
er 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 ex- 
actly 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 jew- 
eler had taken powdered gold and done this work. The flower 
holds up longer at night than any variety in our field, and can 
be classed as one of the few that we can use as a cut-flower. 
It has a heavy leathery texture. Blooms 4% inches. 3 feet. May- 
June. (Introducer’s description.) 
EVANGELINE (Russell) Each $3.00 
Petals are rosy red, almost an old rose, with a deep wine to 
purple eye zone. The sepals are just a bit lighter in color and 
the flowers are decidedly twisted, giving it quite an orchid 
shape. A most unusually profuse bloomer, 5 to 6 inches across. 
Height 3 feet. Blooms in May and again in late summer. 
FAVORITE (Bechtold, 1946) (20 in. E.) (Wild, 1946) 
Each $5.00 
Large, early gaily colored tones in bright red. Makes a showy 
clump just after the iris have finished. Vigorous. 

FIREFLY (Bechtold, 1943) (24 in. E.) (Wild, 1943) 
Each $1.00 
Here is an unusual gem—A brilliant red effect on wiry stems, 
blooming June. Flowers somewhat small but many of them. 
Plant in semi-shade. One of my favorites in thousands to choose 
from. 
FLAME FAGOT (New name for Flame) (Bechtold, 1946) 
(28 in. M.) (Wild, 1946) Each $10.00 
In late June this orange-red self, when established, is a picture. 
Does equally well in partial shade or full sun. 
FLAMING SWORD (Russell) Each $1.00 
Deep fiery red, not as dark as mahogany, with an indescribable 
velvety sheen. Very free flowering, and because it is low-grow- 
ing it looks like a small shrub when in full bloom. It has a 
beautiful chrome throat and is an excellent subject as a cut- 
flower. Flower 3% inches across. 2 feet. June. 
FLORHAM Eachy25crcitonouc 
Soft yellow; beautifully frilled; sweet scented.
