ELMER A. CLAAR DAYLILIES 
SARAH KEY PATTEN—Lovely wide open blooms of wa- 
termelon red with contrasting throat of golden yellow. The 
texture is firm and smooth, with a very satiny finish. A 
flower of unusual beauty and coloring. EM .............. $10.00 
CLINT McDADE DAYLILIES 
DIANTHUS—tThe coloring of this lovely bloom is an un- 
dertone of Dianthus with veinings of cardinal, giving a very 
rosy-red appearance. The petals are fairly wide and faint- 
ly ruffled, with a wide white stripe down the midrib. Shal- 
low throat of Golden Glow yellow. The outstanding fea- 
ture of this flower is that it retains its coloring in hot sun, 
which is most unsual in flowers of similar color makeup.

LAUREL COLEMAN—Because of its large, open Char- 
treuse throat, this flower stands out and is very striking. 
The petals are wide and of a rich mahogany color. The 
two top petals are slightly twisted, while the bottom petal 
lays completely flat. The sepals give a faint tendency to 
twist, but actually stand up straight. The flowers are 
large and bold, with a faint eye-zone of deeper mahogany.

RIVERMONT—This is strictly a night-blooming plant, 
closing its sleepy eyes early in the morning. Velvety Gar- 
net red petals with luminous mid stripe of Martius yellow 
broadening as it blends into the green throat. Sepals of 
Martius yellow with an overcast of Garnet on each side of 
the midrib. The sheen of the dark rich velvety petals make 
the broad midstripe stand out as if phosphorescent. It is 
rather starlike in shape. A “Must” for night arrangements.

WILLIAM T. WOOD DAYLILIES 
MARIE WOOD—A true pink with round, full flowers 
evenly toned and of firm, smooth texture. The petals are 
wide, and both sepals and petals are recurved. The petals 
are slightly ruffled and the pink coloring goes deep down 
into the throat. Because of its delicate transparency, this 
color is difficult to catch on a color chart, but it seems to 
be nearer Azalea Pink (RHS). It has the same coloring 
and looks as dewy and fresh at the end of a hot day as it 
does when the dew is actually upon it. EM .............. $25.00 
ORANGE ICE—tThis is a delicate blend of baby rose or 
Candy Pink (Maerz & Paul) and orange gold. Its basic 
coloring is Baby Rose, flushed golden with marked veinings 
of Baby Rose. The throat is green, banded gold at the 
top. Wide sepals and petals are of heavy substance. The 
petals are slightly ruffled and pencilled in gold at the very 
edge. The flowers are large (8-9 inches) and well spaced on 
sturdy stalks.) M. ...224..2.:/c0cc.tesdesconceessaceee ee $10.00
