lings. As a group, these seedlings have large flowers produced on vigorous, rust-resistant

DAYLILIES 
Interest in daylilies, or Hemerocallis has grown at an amazing pace in the past ten 
to fifteen years. The botanical name of this plant means “beauty for a day,” and 
while the individual flowers are short lived, one may have a long succession of blooms 
from early spring to late summer by a judicious selection of varieties. The plants will 
grow under almost every soil and cimatic condition and insect pests and diseases are 
of negligible importance. For beauty of garden and ease of culture—grow daylilies. 
Join the parade. 
Plants may be divided and reset at any season of the year when the ground is not 
frozen, but the most desirable time in the South is late summer and early fall, after 
blooming is over. 
Daylilies will tolerate a great deal of neglect and abuse, but for larger blooms, a 
profusion of blooms and a longer blooming period, the gardener will be amply rewarded 
by giving his plants a fertile soil, good cuture and water during periods of summer 
drought.
