HEMEROCALLIS (Daylilies) 
The Hemerocallis, or daylily, is the one perennial plant that comes 
close to being all things to all gardners, adapting itself equally well 
in the rigorous winters of North Dakota, the dry atmosphere of 
New Mexico, the humidity of Florida, the changeable climate 
around New York or California. 
Daylilies can be grown without fuss or bother, fitting into various 
conditions of soil, moisture and full sun or partial shade. 
These pest-free plants will be a permanent addition to your gar- 
den. They need not be divided and: transplanted for several years. 
You can combine Daylilies with almost any other perennial and 
with many flowering shrubs. 
They are in full bloom in the middle of the hot summer when 
flowers are not too plentiful, and many varieties continue through 
with reblooming periods, clear up until heavy frosts. 
SHIPMENTS will be made from August to December, and Feb- 
ruary to March 15th.
