(DAY LILIES) 
The Flower With a Future is one of the most fascinating of all time. Its 
beauty and charm are outstanding. There is so much to be had for so little 
effort on the part of the gardener. No known disease, no spraying is neces- 
sary. The modern hybrids have a wide range of gorgeous colors. The many 
types of flowers are amazingly beautiful as well as thrilling. They respond 
to good treatment, increasing flower size and blooming period. 
They should be left in clumps undisturbed for several years for profusion 
of blossoms. For landscape planting, like the Iris, they are ideal. They will 
grow in full sun or partial shade giving splendid flowers either place. 
We offer the finest of sturdy, healthy plants and seed.
