"SPARKLING STARS FROM FAIRYLAND” 
The many surprising and delightful variations of new colors, sizes, and shapes 
of the modern hybrid Daylilies are some of the reasons for their tremendous 
popularity. - Solid colors, pastels, and combinations in bicolored, eyed, banded, 
blended, overtones, etc., with frilled and fluted petals, powdered with gold dust, 
and decorated with distinctive markings, in reds, pinks, maroons, mahogany, 
browns, tans, wine, lavender, purple, orange, apricot, salmon, yellows, cool lemons, 
and many other shades are now available. All colors are represented other than 
white and blue and there are now Daylilies that are marked with white. It won’t 
be long before a white Daylily is a reality. As for blues, it is hard to say when 
they will be available, but I believe we shail have a blue Daylily sometime in the 
future, as there are faint indications of blue coloring in some of our Daylilies now. 
Color breaks are appearing fast. Yes, I do believe “SPARKLING STARS 
FROM FAIRYLAND” is a most fitting description for these gorgeous creations. 
If you have an unhappy spot in your garden where flowers do not bloom in 
the summer, plant some of our yellows, lemons, or pastels to cheer up those spots.

monious contrast. You won’t be sorry in the years to come. Also if you add a few 
new ones each year you will find it becoming an interesting hobby. Next summer 
you will find yourself awakening each morning in anticipation of the new bloom- 
ing miracles about to unfold in your garden. Have you ever observed a Daylily,

until the plant becomes well established. Never judge a Daylily that is blooming 
for the first time, or first year. An established clump will have more stems, more 
and larger buds and blooms per stem and more lustrous finish to the bloom. The 
Daylily is a very prolific bloomer when established. Have patience and you will

request that you heed these directions for successful results although the Daylily

cover with soil. They will bloom even better if given a little attention Daylilies 
are appreciative of kindness. 
Daylilies are free from disease and insects, therefore need no spraying. They 
will grow in most any soil other than a swampy location. Most varieties increase 
rapidly and most bloom during the summer months when other flowers are either 
sleeping or just enjoying a siesta.

bloom beautifully. throughout the U.S. and many parts of the world. The Daylily
