SAXTON INTRODUCTIONS FOR 1950 
Our seedlings are grown in northern New York in the Adirondacks (Zone 2). 
Selections are made on the basis of vigor, purity of color and flowering beauty 
under these very difficult growing conditions and short season. We have never 
had a report that any of our daylilies have winter killed no matter what the 
conditions. We recommend that those gardeners who have similar cold condi- 
tions try these selections. We have also had excellent reports from the south 
on varieties Myrna, Griselle and Tafiy. Our named sorts, excepting the 1950 
introductions below, are described in the regular Color sequence lists 
ARAB CHIEF. Very large star shaped flower to 7 ”". Canary yellow with 
petals streaked light red. Vigorous and robust with well branched 48” 
scapes. July. $5.00 
GRISELLE. Medium size flower with very wide, recurved and overlapping 
petals of raspberry-scarlet (M&P-3KQ9), veined deeper. Early and some- 
times reblooms in the fall. A few plants for August delivery. 30” 
scapes. $10.00 
KING JUBA. The sturdy 45” stalks make a bold garden picture with their 
5” to 51%” light red flowers. The sepals are lighter and the petals 
somewhat crimped on the edges. July. $3.00 
UNCLE JOE. Large velvety red self with ruffled petals. Strong grower 
and makes a very showy clump. 36” tall. July-August. $5.00 
A LISTING OF CHOICE DAYLILIES 
in color sequence 
Each year we add to this list new varieties which we feel are improvements, 
and we discard older sorts which are surpassed by a new variety near the same 
price. We like to feel that our customers can order anything from this list 
with full confidence that they will have an outstanding flower to grace their 
gardens. 
We have many new and rare sorts on trial and welcome your inquiries 
about them. We try to fill your orders with plants which will encourage you 
to order regularly from us. If for any reason you are not pleased do not hesi- 
tate to write us as we know that our business depends upon your satisfaction.
