QUEEN OF DALLAS. Evergreen. 
This lovely 6-inch, extremely ruffled flower is 
buff-yellow with faint fulvous markings. I have 
yet to see a visitor in my fields who wasn’t al- 
most spellbound by its beauty. I have never 
been able until this year to have enough stock of 
this plant. Ht. 314 ft. May, June. $1.50 each; 
3 for $4.00. 
QUOTE ME. Evergreen. 
You can quote me. This is the loveliest of all 
the giant-flowered sorts. Its wide bloom is 8 
inches across. A solid self between deep yellow 
and light chrome, with wide, ruffled petals and 
slightly recurved sepals. Ht. 3 ft. May, June. 
$2.00 each; 3 for $5.00. 
RUSSELL GARDENS, SPRING, TEXAS 
Queen of Gonzales 
QUEEN OF GONZALES. Evergreen. 
A huge, wide-petaled, early bloomer, about 
6 inches across. Its color is the deepest gold, 
almost chrome, and lasts longer after being cut 
than any Daylily I have ever seen. The plant 
here is almost a constant bloomer, but its most 
profuse season is April and May. This variety 
and Mrs. B. F. Bonner were listed in the Flower 
Grower, August 1945, as two of the best Daylilies, 
regardless of price. Ht. 3 ft. $1.00 each; 3 for 
$2.00. 
Ramona Seeligson 
RAMONA SEELIGSON. Evergreen. 
An unusual, 8 to 9-inch bloom shaped like an 
orchid. The long, rich brownish red petals are 
slightly overcast with a misty purple that twists 
and twirls in several directions. Yellow, twisted 
sepals. Breath-takingly lovely. Ht. 21% ft. 
April, May, and again in July. $2.00. 
RED CINDERELLA. Dormant. 
A brilliant Chinese red, with a satiny sheen 
and an orange throat. The petals of the 41-inch 
flower are wide and ruffled and slightly recurved. 
This is what we’d term a real circus-wagon red, 
and in full bloom it shows off a block away. 
Ht. 214 ft. May, June. $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50. 
RED MOON. Dormant. 
This lovely deep cinnamon-red, huge, 51-inch 
flower has a deeper red eye zone and red veins 
through the petals, with a green throat. It was 
completely sold out every season; only this year 
were we able to catch up. No Daylily in its color 
class has such a glorious display of veins. Ht. 
3ft. May, June. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00.
