GEORGE YELD (Perry) Each 40c, 3 for $1.00 
3 feet. A magnificent daylily—one of the very best. Large open 
flowers, 6 inches across, with wide petals of canary yellow, 
brushed red; this color intensifying toward the throat, where 
it becomes deep red, then suddenly terminates with a deep clear 
yellow star at the throat. Three narrow alternating strap-like

This is a masterpiece of golden yellow. In rich, moist soil I 
grow 6-inch flowers with petals 1% inches in width. The plant 
multiplies very slowly, but grows new plants on its stems, 
which if removed in September with 2 inches of the parent 
stem and planted, will take root immediately.

This is the perfect Hemerocallis. In good rich soil, kept damp 
at blooming time one can expect 7-inch wide open deep yellow 
flowers. It is a prolific bloomer and Mr. Bechtold considers it 
one of his finest introductions.

yellow. Medium height with good branching. July-August. 38 
inches.

grant. Given an award of merit by the Royal Horticultural So- 
ciety of England. July and August.

stripe through the center of each petal to the tip. July and 
August. One of the best.
