Hemerocallis 
Day Lily 
Daylilies are one of the easiest of all peren- 
nials to grow and flower. They love sunlight and 
plenty of water, but will succeed fairly well in 
light shade and under adverse conditions. Under 
ordinary garden care you should have no dith- 
culty with them. 
We are listing herewith some of the finest but 
inexpensive varieties in a full range of colors and 
types. A small collection should add variety of 
color and foliage interest to your garden. As the 
flowers turn their faces to the sun, you will have 
better effect if you plant them on the north side 
of the path or window so that you can look into 
the flowers. 
A few candid words about the colors of Day- 
lilies. There are no such colors in Daylilies as 
pink. purple, white or black. Don’t be mis- 
led by color illustrations in which the engraver 
has overdone his art. We do not condone the 
breeder who names a variety purple this or that 
because the flower has a slight purplish tone or 
black such and such because the color is dark, 
even though we must list such names because the 
introducer has the privilege of naming his va- 
riety. So, don’t be disappointed if the red you 
ordered turns out to be a dull brownish ted 
rather than scarlet and the pink turns out to be 
carrot color rather than rose. Of course, with all 
of the new blended colors, our favorite colors 
are still the lovely yellows and oranges. Order 
the new colors by all means but don’t expect 
miracles. Delivery anytime.
