CRADLE SONG (Milliken) 
First of all, last year’s description of this particular daylily was 
a wee bit misleading—in fact we were embarrassed to no small 
degree, when this lovely progeny of High Noon turned out to be 
only slightly less beautiful than its quite famous parent. For three 
years before introduction we had grown this variety and did not 
line it out. Under these conditions it did remain reasonably small 
in size, but the year be‘ore introduction we lined it all out, and 
lo and behold when it bloomed, it did not grow too tall, about 22 
inches, but the flowers were almost as large as High Noon. The 
branching is superb with many flowers open at once, and the row 
looked like a solid deep yellow ribbon. The lovely yellow blos- 
soms, a bit more informal than High Noon, open late in the after- 
noon and carry over until the next day. It is hard to say, but this 
may well be the best of all the Milliken daylilies—and that is prac- 
tically mutiny, but it does not seem to have any faults—it multi- 
plies very rapidly and bloomed three different times last aes
