Hemerocallis (Continued) 
Gay Troubadour (Nesmith 1941) This is an entirely different and charming hemero- 
callis, being a most unusual cream yellow and red bicolor. The petals are bright 
Indian red in stunning contrast to the sepals of frosty maize yellow. Very flar- 
ing flowers of great beauty and refinement. Blooming period, July and August. 
40”. $1.25 
Haile Selassie (Wheeler 1947) A very deep maroon-purple toned flower, medium 
large, regular form. The petals are solidly colord excepting for a narrow almost 
clear white line which extends from the throat to the petal tips. The sepals are 
a shade lighter than the petals with the center band of white much wider. The 
throat is golden yellow in beautiful contrast. Midseason. 36”. $2.00 
Hesperus (H. P. Sass 1930) A magnificent yellow chrome with very large open 
flowers of splendid form and substance. The large stalks are very tall, well 
branched and sturdy. Height 46”. $1.50 
Honey Redhead (Nesmith 1942) A very brilliant and unusual combination of colors 
that is highly praised by hemerocallis judges. Flowers are open and flaring of 
velvety bright rose-red with a distinct border of pale creamy-yellow. Good 
branching. 38”. July-August. $1.00 
Hyperion (Mead 1925) Large canary colored flowers on long, straight stems that are 
a fine addition to any planting of hemerocallis. Very fine substance, with a 
smooth surface. 36”, July and August. 75¢ 
Joanna Hutchins (Kraus) — This variety has so many good qualities we would like 
to call it the “perfect Daylily.” The color is clear orange — the richest and 
smoothest color imaginable. The stalks are of medium height (about 34 inches) 
well branched, carrying many flowers that bloom over a long season. $2.00 
Knighthood (Schroeder 1948) Well formed, broad-petalled flowers of rich, velvety 
maroon. July. 48”. $4.00 
Lidice (H. P. Traub) Early midseason, orange, suffused reddish yellow. Multiflora

mahogany red in each petal. Blooms June to August on 36” stems. Very free 
bloomer on well-branched stems. 50c

planted with yellows. July. 42”. $1.00

yellow, producing up to 50 flowers to a stalk on established plants. A very fine 
variety that is a strong grower and a free bloomer. July-August. $2.00
