NEW INTRODUCTIONS 
Bi-colors and Two-tones 
BERNICE RUSSELL. Evergreen. 
This huge flower, like Jewel Russell 
and Rainbow Chaser, is of the same par- 
entage as Painted Lady. You all know 
what Painted Lady is. All these plants 
were originated the same year but we 
considered these three far superior to 
Painted Lady in every way as garden 
subjects, as well as parents for further 
plant breeding. So we insisted on holding 
them until we had a large enough stock 
to meet the demand, as we've never had 
with Painted Lady. We are sure these 
three plants will give a far better account 
of themselves than did Painted Lady. 
The color of Bernice Russell is what I'd 
call a most magnificent shade of rosy 
cinnamon-yellow bordering on brownish 
but to me far more appealing than Painted 
Lady because it does not have the depth 
of brown. This is the best I can describe 
it. 7-inch bloom. Ht. 214 ft. April, May. 
See photo on page 10. $5.00. 
NEODESHA. Dormant. 
A lovely flower with wine-red_ petals 
and yellow sepals overcast red, with a 
deeper wine-red eye zone and yellow 
midrib blending into a beautiful yellow 
throat. One of the most distinct bicolors 
of the lower-growing Daylilies that ever 
existed. We have stocked this variety 
for several seasons and made every effort 
to increase stock sufficiently to offer it 
this year. 44-inch bloom. Ht. 21% ft. 
$3.00. 
RAINBOW CHASER. Evergreen. 
This giant of all giant flowers is fully 
7 inches across. Its form can best be 
described by the photo on page 10. The 
tips of the petals are a light rosy red, with 
a deep brown-red eye zone and a green 
throat. Sepals are canary-yellow. A full 
brother of the giant Bernice Russell. Ht. 
216 ft. May, June. $5.00. 
Other Rose, Pinks to Salmon 
BAGGETTE. Dormant. 
This is truly a dream. Wide rounded petals 
of palest lemon deeply shaded old-rose, with a 
deeper old-rose eye zone. One of the most profuse 
bloomers in our fields and keeps very well. The 
deeply ruffled petals further enhance its beauty. 
One of America’s best Daylilies. 5-inch bloom. 
Ht. 214 ft. April, May. $3.00. 
BREEZE. Evergreen. 
True old-rose slightly overcast rich wine- 
orchid; the petals and sepals are colored alike, 
with a faint white stripe and a green throat. 
Very fine texture. The rounded bloom is about 
4 inches across. One of my favorites among all 
the true old-rose colors. Semi-dwarf. Ht. 2 ft. 
April to June. $1.50. 
CHALICE. Evergreen. 
I introduced this Daylily at $25.00 — 
and I made a mistake. It should never have 
been priced so high, because it is one of the 
fastest growers we have in our fields; therefore 
I am reducing the price, and all who ordered 
from us at $25.00 will get an adjustment in other 
Daylilies. In my estimation Chalice will never 
be beaten in its color class. It is not a baby pink, 
but the deepest, softest shade of salmon-pink. 
The 414-inch blooms open full, with a sulphur- 
yellow throat. Ruffled petals, slightly  re- 
curved. Ht. 31% ft. May, June. $3.00.

CHINA ROSE. Dormant. 
This is a real rosy red with a light midrib in 
each petal and a yellow trace around the entire 
flower. The throat is green and the petals are 
ruffled. 44-inch bloom. Ht. 3 ft. April, May, 
and again July. $3.00. 
DRESS REHEARSAL. Evergreen. 
Offered again after an absence of almost 
three years while growing enough stock. Petals 
and sepals are salmon-pink with old-rose eye 
zone; the throat is yellow. These larger, widely 
open, full blooms will give added beauty to any 
garden. Keeps well in the evening. Ht. 31% ft. 
May, June. $2.00. 
FULVA ROSEA. (Species) Dormant. 
The most beautiful of any wild species of 
Hemerocallis. The flowers are rose-pink, on a 
graceful stalk. Ht. 31% ft. June, July. $2.00. 
GARDEN OF ROSES. Dormant. 
The 41¢-inch blooms are pale rose to deep 
salmon, with a deeper eye zone and a green 
throat. Extremely outstanding. Ht. 4 ft. June, 
July. $2.00. 
ROSE BEAUTY. Dormant. 
While not so deep a rose color as some, this is 
far from salmon. Visitors to our fields call it 
pink. Its wide petals and slightly ruffled sepals 
are unusually recurved. The texture is almost 
like leather, with a sulphur throat shading to 
green at the base. Probably the best in its class. 
Quite a late bloomer and multiplies fast. 41%- 
inch bloom. Ht. 3% ft. June, July. $2.00.
