Other Two-Tones and Bi-colors 
BELLE OF GEORGIA. Dormant. 
A rounded, pale yellow bloom, overcast with 
the color and markings of a ripe peach, and 
therefore named for one of the South’s best 
peaches. I’ve never seen any Daylily with such 
color pattern as this. Simply a ‘‘must-have.” 
4 to 5-inch bloom. Ht. 3 ft. April, May. $1.00. 
CAPITOLA. Dormant. 
The wide ruffled and crinkled petals are rich 
rose with a buff-colored mid-rib and a deeper 
rose eye zone. Sepals are a real buff-yellow and 
the throat sulphur-green. Slightly recurved. 
Keeps well in the evening. Ht. 3 ft. May, June. 
$1.00. 
COMET. Dormant. 
A lovely giant bicolor. The sepals are lemon, 
the petals a distinct rose. A sensation in our 
field and offered again after being taken off the 
market to increase our stock. 7-inch bloom. 
Ht. 31% ft. May, June, and again in late sum- 
mer. $1.00. 
EDITH RUSSELL. Evergreen. 
This is the first Daylily I have seen which has 
sepals darker 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 exactly 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 jeweler had taken powdered gold and 
done this work. The flower holds up. 4)-in. 
bloom. Ht. 3 ft. May, June. $1.00. 
GLORY OF TEXAS. 
This huge 6-inch flower with wide overlapping 
petals is a most unusual shade of burgundy-wine, 
fully ruffled, with a rich green throat and a wide, 
almost white, up-raised midrib in each petal. 
The sepals are gold deeply sprinkled with a vivid 
shade of burgundy. This flower is excellent as a 
cut flower because it stays open so late at night. 
Ht. 214% ft. June, July. $1.00. 
MARGARET PALMER. Evergreen. 
This beautiful flower was named for the garden 
editor of the Houston Press. A lovely rounded 
bloom with wide overlapping petals of soft red, 
not so dark as some, and a lovely red-cardinal 
eye zone. The sepals are yellow, overcast red. 
Yellow throat. 4'%-inch bloom. Ht. 2% ft. 
May, June. $1.00. 
QUEEN OF DALLAS. Evergreen. 
This lovely 6-inch, extremely ruffled flower is 
buff-yellow with faint fulvous markings. I have 
yet to see a visitor in my fields who wasn’t al- 
most spellbound by its beauty. I have never 
been able until this year to have enough stock of 
this plant. Ht. 31% ft. May, June. $3.00.

RUSSELL’S GLADIATOR. Dormant. 
Want a honey for a cut flower? One that is 
magnificent in the garden day and night and 
even lovelier in the house as a cut flower? Well, 
here’s one of the deepest golden yellow with a 
wide salmon eye zone and a rich green throat— 
what a contrast of color! Its wide petals have a 
glorious twisted and recurved shape that is over- 
looked by no one. You have been asking for 
Daylilies that stay open; then I assure you in 
this variety you are getting just that. 5-inch 
bloom. Ht. 3'%4 ft. April, May, June. $1.00. 
SUSAN. Dormant. 
The flower is 6 inches across. The ruffled 
petals are a rich brilliant red with a canary stripe 
in the center of each. The sepals are yellow in 
the center with a rosy red outer edge and to 
enhance this color combination further, there is a 
huge star-shaped green throat. A very profuse 
bloomer and a lovely companion for Glory of 
Texas and Mrs. B. F. Bonner, being so strikingly 
different. A fast multiplier. Ht. 31% ft. June, 
July. $1.00. 
While these color pictures are all actual 
Eastman Kodachromes, they cannot do justice 
to the real flowers because they do not show the 
velvety petal texture. The beauty of all these 
blooms is underrated rather than exaggerated.
