DAAFU (Elmer A. Claar) $25.00 
This is just the daylily you've been wishing for. It's 
a beautiful pink - it's low-growing - and it begins 
blooming just as the other fine pinks are taking their 
farewell bows. DAAFU is a lovely clear, rose-pink 
with a deep rose banding and a golden throat. The 
sepals and petals are beautifully recurved, and the 
texture is firm and durable. The entire plant is in 
perfect balance, with the lush green foliage just the 
proper height and growth habit to compliment the 
beautiful flowers on their low-growing stalks. It is 
a wonderful garden plant. 
DAAFU is named for Mr. Claar's dainty little grand- 
daughter, Jennifer, whose pet name is Daafu, and I'm 
sure when you see daylily DAAFU you will agree that 
it's frosty sheen and delicate coloring do make you 
think of a dainty little girl all dressed up for a party 
in her pink organdy dress, fresh and sweet.

WHITE ORCHID (Bach) M 18” 25.00 
We have admired the late Mrs. William R. Bach's 
fine daylilies for sometime and though we did not 
have the pleasure of knowing her, we have heard such 
wonderful things about her, what a delightfully charm- 
ing and gracious lady she was, that it is with great 
pride that we present Mrs. Bach's WHITE ORCHID. 
Mrs. Bach considered this one of the finest day- 
lilies she produced. She was especially interested 
in creating low-growing whites, and though this is 
not white, it is very pale, and | suppose Mrs. Bach 
came nearer to giving us white daylilies than any 
hybridizer up to now. 
The flowers of WHITE ORCHID are large and full, of 
very heavy texture and durability. They hold up well 
during the hottest days, retaining their fine substance 
into the evening. The color is pale cream, with faintly 
lemon throat. The sepals and petals, which are 
slightly recurved, are wide and delicately frilled.
