“Glowers from the Wilds of Missowrn” 
DAYLILIES (Hemerocallis) 

DESERT SUNRISE (Bechtold, 1949) (46 in. M.) Each $10.00 
Here is a worthy newcomer, almost a self in effect. The petals 
are sunstone orange and the sepals chrome orange. At close 
view, when facing the sun, it glitters as if sprinkled with gold 
dust. It blooms over a long period, starting in midsummer and 
holds up beautifully under intense sun. Flower stalks stand 
well above foliage and attain a height of 46 inches only after 
it has become established. It is a real treasure. 
D. D. WYMAN (Betscher) Each 40c, 3 for $1.00 
44 inches. One of our largest and finest daylilies. The individ- 
ual flowers measure 6 inches across and the plant being loaded 
with blooms. The color is deep, rich golden yellow, with a brick 
red spot on each petal. July and August. 
DOLLY VARDEN (Nesmith, 1939) Each $1.00, 3 for $2.50 
Open full flower of Chinese coral pink with lines of rose on 
petals and sepals blended into a creamy yellow throat. June- 
July. 3% feet. 
DOMINION (Stout) Each $2.00 
Extra large full flowers of rich red coloring in concentric three 
toned pattern. When established, it often throws second bloom 
stalks. 38 inches. July. 
DOROTHEA (Lester) Each $5.00 
Very attractive and different. The 6-inch flowers have a soft, 
unusual, and very beautiful coloring which gives an orchid- 
lavender effect. The petals have a light yellow ground color 
which is flushed with heliotrope and also have a deeper helio- 
trope eye zone; the sepals are pale yellow. Deciduous. 2% to 
3 feet. 
DR. SLAUGHTER (Russell, 1947) (Evergreen) Each $4.00 
A fiery red daylily with an orange stripe through each semi- 
recurved petal, and a small orange throat. 3%-inch bloom. 
Height 2% feet. June, Jnly. 
DUMORTIERI (Species) Each 25c, 3 for 50c 
Orange shaded brown on outside; early blooming. 
EDITH RUSSELL (Russell, 1946) Each $4.00 
The color is a shade of yellow—not chrome, cream, nor lemon, 
but exactly the color of sulphur with rose veins, profusely ruf- 
fled. The huge open throat is a slightly deeper shade of sul- 
phur. Sepals are the deepest rose sprinkled with gold dust. It 
has a heavy leathery texture. Blooms 4% inches. 3 feet. June. 
EVANGELINE (Russell) Each $1.00 
Petals are rosy red, almost an old rose, with a deep wine to 
purple eye zone. The sepals are just a bit lighter in color and 
the flowers are decidedly twisted, giving it quite an orchid 
shape. A most unusually profuse bloomer, 5 to 6 inches across. 
Height 3 feet. Blooms in May and again in late summer. 
FAVORITE (Bechtold, 1946) (20 in. E.) Each $4.00 
Large, early gaily colored tones in bright red. Makes a showy 
clump just after the iris have finished. Vigorous. 

FIREFLY (Bechtold, 1943) (24 in. E.) Each $1.00 
Here is an unusual gem—A brilliant red effect on wiry stems, 
blooming June. Flowers somewhat small but many of them. 
Plant in semi-shade. One of my favorites in thousands to choose 
from. 
FLAME FAGOT (New name for Flame) (Bechtold, 1946) 
(28 in. M.) Each $10.00 
In late June this orange-red self, when established, is a picture. 
Does equally well in partial shade or full sun. 
FLAMING SWORD (Russell) Each $1.00 
Deep fiery red, not as dark as mahogany, with an indescribable 
velvety sheen. Very free flowering, and because it is low-grow- 
ing it looks like a small shrub when in full bloom. It has a 
beautiful chrome throat and is an excellent subject as a cut- 
flower. Flower 3% inches across. 2 feet. June. 
FLORHAM (Herr, 1899) Each 25c, 3 for 50c 
Soft yellow; beautifully frilled; sweet scented. 
FULVA ROSEA (Species) Each $1.50 
The most beautiful of any known wild species of Hemerocallis. 
The flowers are rose pink with a graceful stalk. 3% feet. June 
and July. 
GARDEN CHARM (Bechtold, 1946) (22 in. E.M.) Each $2.00 
Truly a Hemerocallis to be admired. Huge golden yellow flow- 
ers held on graceful stems. Petals are unusually wide. 
GARNET ROBE (Milliken) Each $15.00 
This interesting daylily has an exceptional combination of char- 
acteristics; it is glowing like an ember and it is also rich and 
velvety. The color of both petals and sepals is deep red (deep 
oxblood red, Ridgway). This deep coloring, which does not fade, 
runs to within an inch of the bottom of the throat, then lower 
inch being greenish yellow. The flower is of medium size 
(5 inches) and opens wide. Evergreen. 3 feet. 
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 
petals of butter yellow, slightly flushed orange. Unique and 
striking. July and August.
