MARIE WOOD (Wood) EM 30” 25.00 
A true pink with round, full flowers evenly toned 
and of firm, smooth texture. The petals are wide, 
and both sepals and petals are recurved. The petals 
are slightly ruffled and the pink coloring goes deep 
down into the throat. Because of its delicate trans- 
parency, this color is difficult to catch on a color chart, 
but it seems to be nearer Azalea Pink (RHS). It has 
the same coloring, and looks as dewy and fresh at the 
end of a hot day as it does when the dew is actually 
upon it. It is a fine and vigorous grower when fed 
and left alone, but it does not like to be divided every 
year. 
We had hoped to offer some plants of MARIE 
WOOD this year, but when people saw it blooming in 
Valdosta, we were cleaned out before we had even 
proof-read our catalog. We can take only reservations 
at this time. 
MARIONETTE (Lester) LM 36” 4.00 
We cannot recommend this daylily too highly. It 
is one of the most striking we grow. The 5-inch 
blooms of rich buttercup yellow with the rich ma- 
hogany band about a half inch wide across the petals 
and sepals near the throat make this a_ startling 
beauty. Never fades and remains open late at night. 
MARY GUENTHER (Russell) M 40 ” ‘75 
A very bright bicolor of red petals and orange 
sepals. A real eye-catcher. 
MARTHA WASHINGTON (Wheeler) M 48” 3.00 
Medium-sized silvery old rose blooms with a lav- 
ender cast. Many cup shaped flowers on well branch- 
ed stalks. 
MARTIE EVEREST (McDade) L 40” 1.00 
Very showy, large spidery-shaped flowers of bright 
red and yellow. 
MERRIEWOODE STAR (Wood) M 34” 2.50 
A bold and startling red and yellow bicolor with 
ery large, wide-open flowers on well branched erect 
stems. Sepals and petals are slightly recurved with 
wide cpen throat of golden-glow yellow. A flower 
that stands out in the garden.

Two daylilies that compliment each other are MAID 
MARION and SARAH KEY PATTEN - both in lovely 
shades of rose. MAID MARION tall and stately, and 
below it, SARAH KEY PATTEN echoing those soft pink 
and rose tones.

MICHAEL ROBINSON (Russell) EM 40” 1.00 
A very richly glowing velvet of dark brown-red 
coloring. A fine addition to the early border. 
MIDWEST MAJESTY (H.P. Sass) M 50” A.M. 1952 5.00 
One of the very finest of the tall yellow varieties. 
A striking, large yellow flower, perfect in form and 
heavily substanced. Many huge flowers on well 
branched stalks. Stately and impressive. 
MIDWEST STAR (H.P. Sass) M 48” H.M. 1951 4.00 
One of the largest of the pale yellows, this is one 
that is always a favorite. Wide, slightly ruffled petals 
are of good substance and beautiful form. 
MILADY (Nesmith) M 40” 2.00 
A very beautiful salmon pink with slender fluted 
petals and smoothly finished sepals. A delightful 
flower of lily form. 
MING TOY (Wheeler) E 20” 2.00 
Pure red semi-dwart which truly glows in a garden 
planting. Very free flowering. 
MINNIE (Hayward) M 36” TS 
A rich mahogany flower with a glint of crimson 
which attracts attention at once. It looks like soft rich 
velvet. The flowers are not large (3 inches), but 
although the coloring is deep it still has life. An 
orange throat lights the center of the flower. 
MINUET (Nesmith) M 40” 1.00 
A subtle blend of frosty pink shadowed deeper 
rose on the petals and sepals giving a rosy pink effect. 
The flowers are of fulva rosea form, but larger and 
the scapes are better branched. 
MISSION BELLS (Hall) M 36” A. M. 1951 3.00 
Large, wide-petaled, ruffled flower of clear medium 
yellow. Beautifully formed flowers are borne in pro- 
fusion on well branched stems.
