HEMEROCALLIS 
“Beauty of the Day” 
Years ago we became interested in Daylilies. In those 
days very few outstanding commercial varieties were 
available, but even so, they proved to us that Hemero- 
callis were the ideal perennials for Southern conditions. 
Since that time hundreds of new varieties have been 
created, and today Hemerocallis are among the most 
popular perennials in America. 
Imagine plants that will grow and thrive with a mini- 
mum of care, in either sun or partial shade, that the 
not subject to plant pests and diseases and therefore 
require no spraying, that will grow in dry or moist soil 
and are satisfactory from Florida to Maine! They are 
ideal in the annual or perennial border with a back- 
ground of higher shrubs, in dull spots in foundation 
plantings, in the cutting garden or for naturalizing. They 
are the busy gardener’s answer to a prayer for more 
color. 
The killing frost experienced in November 1950, more 
than ever proved the value of these plants. Thousands 
of other plants were killed or injured, but not Daylilies, 
No damage. Beautiful beyond words again in the Spring 
and Summer. 
We do not attempt to list all the varieties on the 
market today. For that matter, we do not believe that 
anyone offers all of hem. However, by continually test- 
ing promising new varieties, we are eliminating those 
types that prove to be not at home under our climatic 
conditions. 
We are so “‘sold”’ on these plants that we want you 
to enjoy them with us in your own Garden. 
Just look at our “Special Offer.”” Thirteen of the Fin- 
est varieties, currently selling for as much as $1.25 
per plant. Here is your chance to really start a prize 
collection.
