larity Poll for 1953. 
PAINTED LADY (Russell) M. 36%’. Ev. 2.00 
The famous, gigantic, sought-after winner of the Stout Medal

Handsome broad petals of rich ruby maroon with broad golden

after. 
PINK CHARM (Nesmith) ML. 40’. 1.00 
Beautifully recurving to give a lily-star effect, a dusky rose pink 
shading to copper rose, fine sized blooms. 
PIQUANTE (Nesmith) ML. 407’. 1.50 
Charming rose color with raspberry tinting. Very tall stems, an 
ideal background variety. It is illustrated with the group on page 12. 
POTENTATE (Nesmith) ML. 40’. 5.00 
This is a rare color gem, a tone of purple described as Pansy 
purple. Certainly one of the most individual. Not large flowered 
but proud winner of Stout Medal for 1952; rebloomer. Illustrated 
on page 16. 
PRIMA DONNA (Taylor) EM. 36”. Ev. 10.00

peach; beautiful, full formed flower of wonderful proportion. 
PRIMULA (Kraus) M. 35”. 3.00 
Waxen flowers, precise and crisp, they face outward on the stem 
like a Madonna lily. A pure shad2 of yellow and on2 of the most 
beautiful Daylilies in the pure yellow tones.

A free growing dark wine purple with a light fluting to the petals.

QUEEN ESTHER (Sass) ML. 33”. 3.00 
A brilliant crimson self with star-like flowers. Effective. 
RED BIRD (Stout) M. 38”. Ev. 2.00 
This is the ‘‘fire engine’’ red of the Daylily patch; very brilliant 
with a coppery highlight. 
RED LADY (Stout) ML. 44’’. 2.50 
Almost a scarlet red, tall, and a good bloomer. The color is re- 
markably clear and has a slight cherry cast to make it brighter than 
average. 
RED KNIGHT (Stout) L. 40”. 2.50 
This is a twin to RED LADY. Interestingly, when they are both 
planted together they show a striking display of color value varying 
from day to day. 
REDROCK CANYON (Milliken) EM. 38”. Ev. 2.00 
A most pleasant red. A uniform orange red with a heavier shad- 
ing of Brazil red; very rich.

Large sun resistant, medium yellow. Fine substance and texture. 
Vigorous grower. 
RINGLETS (Kraus) M. 34’. 6.00 
The charm of this dainty, petite Daylily is hard to illustrate and 
hard to describe. We have pictured it on page 19. The curled-back, 
32-inch florets captivate everyone. A wonderful cut flower subject, 
a jewel and a superb miniature. 
ROSARIO (Kraus) M. 36”. 7.50 
A deeper pink than Evelyn Claar, this variety has more the rose 
color tones of KILLARNEY LASS on a taller, more branched, stem. 
A very worthwhile deep rose pink. 
ROSE GEM (Stout) ML. 40”. 2.00 
Deep, rose colored, with heavily textured blooms. Deeper than 
several of the other rose toned varieties.
