Saxton Daylilies for 1954 
We are pleased to bring to you our daylily offerings for 1954. For your greater convenience 
we have this year combined our different lists into one catalog. Also we have added a special “Honor 
Roll” of those varieties which have proven finest in our own garden. We suggest you try some of these 
as we believe they are Tops in their color groups. See description of our cover daylily —GRISELLE 
—under pinks in the Honor Roll. This is one we hope you all will try. 
In spite of increased costs we have in many cases reduced prices greatly. The famous 
Wheeler Daylily Creations are now much more reasonable. You can now afford the ‘rare’ ones for 
which you have waited. Please read TERMS on last page before ordering.
