The popularity of the newer Daylilies is not. surprising. Their ease of growth, 
the dependability of the plants, and the beauty of the. flowers is causing more 
people each year to steadily increase their planting of these lovely flowers. With 
larger and finer flowers appearing in new colors, their use is widely extending. 
Start growing them, and you will become a daylily fan for life. 
The flowers are in bloom from the middle of May until the 10th of August in our 
locality. Many listed in Eastern catalogues as blooming in Aug. and Sept. bloom in 
July in our garden. This year a number of Clint McDade's have been added, which 
bloom in August and September, 
Several kinds often bloom again in fall, and are marked "XK" before the price. 
Daylilies need sun at least half a day for bloom, and grow best in a sunny location. 
While they will bloom in hot and dry weather, an occasional watering will produce 
larger and finer blooms, Allow 2 ft. between plants for normal growth. Place the 
crown a little below the surface, when you plant. them; and spread out the roots. 
Any good fertilizer will help growth and bloom. We have been growing most of the 
plants in compost, and this induces a good root growth. . 
FRAGRANCE: All the evening bloomers and the lighter yellows (0-5) are fragrant. 
Apricot and Winsome are early bloomers. Among the deeper toned later yellows are 
Gold Coast, Golden West, Ophir, Riviera, Soudan and Sir M, Foster. It is 56). sm 
found in paaike or red ghadess 
COLOR LISTING: Varieties are placed in color groups. Pow people have alee charts, 
and do not know the depth of color from the descriptions. Yellows come in several 
tones, some greenish as barium or citron yellow, others lemon in color. Then. there 
are pure yellows, as amber, empire and chrome, and some have a touch of gold or 
orange in their make-up, As the Betscher hybrids are well known, and have a wide 
color range in the yellow and orange shades, they were used as a basis for depth of 
color, and begin with "1", Flowers lighter in color are marked "0" or "00" for a 
paler shade. Other varicties having the same color number may. be entirely different 
in form, size of flower, and height, also-in the color range. The numbers are used 
only to help you select different shades in color. Since this procedure may be 
aifficult to use with pink or red shades, and some color patterns, we are using 
another plan. These varieties will be marked L. M. or D. before the name, indicating 
whether they are light, medium or dark in general coloring. Advise if this, method is 
helpful- to you. : ret ) |
