Hemerocallis (Day Lillies) 
Amazing progress has been accomplished by 
breeders in the past few years with these delight- 
ful waxen, fragrant lily-like flowers held on tall 
graceful stems, with beautiful grass-like foliage. 
They are now obtainable in all shades from palest 
yellow to deep orange, pink, rose pink, red, brown- 
maroon and the combinations of these shades. They 
adapt themselves to almost any climate and will do 
well in any type soil. They prefer sun or partial 
shade and a moderate amount of water. In fact, 
they will stand more hot, dry weather than almost 
any flowe—rright along with the irises. 
There are hemerocallis that will open up in the 
evening so that if you are entertaining at night you 
may use these beautiful flowers in arrangements 
and not be afraid of them ‘going to sleep’ on you. 
The old type hemerocallis could not be used at night, 
if you recall. By careful selection of early and later 
blooming varieties, bloom may be continuous from 
Spring to Fall. We like to plant in the fall be- 
ginning about September. Then next Spring you will 
get some blooms and as each year comes the clump 
grows and more blooms are produced. 
We are specializing in Iris and Hemerocallis. If 
you have not tried these wonder flowers, don’t put 
it off another year. They are being used as founda- 
tion plants among evergreens and shrubbery or as a 
garden all to themselves. Our prices are very low 
for quality plants as we do not print a catalog. 
You are welcome to visit us at any time and we 
especially invite you during the blooming season. 
We wish to thank all our former customers for their 
liberal patronage and we shall be happy to welcome 
new customers as well as old back again this year. 
We strive to please. If you receive your plants in 
good condition they will grow if you plant them 
right. Always spread the roots out when planting, 
and let the crown of the plant come even with surface. 
Don’t put fertilizers next to the plant. You may feed 
these by placing fertilizers between plants—mulch- 
ing with castor bean hulls is good for winter, won’t 
hurt to keep some on the bed year around. If you 
do not receive in good growing condition, please noti- 
fy us at once. These plants are State inspected. 
Thank you.
