for three or four weeks.
Shallow cultivation Is essential.
Feeding is not necessary but q
small amount Of commercial fer
tilizer worked into the soil around
the clump in the spring will help.
Watering is only necessary during
prolonged dry weather. Winter
protection is unnecessary II the
old foliage remains over the
crown
Day lilies may be planted either
In spring or fall. before October
IS. Most gardeners divide old
clumps Immediately following the
Towering period. The leaves are
then cut back to 8 or inches
II the divisions are not too small
or made too late In the season
the newly set-out plants will make
good growth and will flower the
following season.
Day lilies should be q must for
the discerning gardener and for
the gardener who wants an effec-
tive display without too much
trouble and work. Visit q few gar
deners who have already explored
the field and note those varieties
which will serve your needs most
satisfactorily. There are o num-
ber Of such gardens in the Wash
inston area. Note the Towering
season, height and spread as well
as the color Of each variety.

heavy shade. They do very well
In full sun or light shade, al
though the flowers of some varie-
ties sunburn in full sun. Day lilies
Withstand considerable drought
even do very well in moist situa-
tions-but they will not grow in a
soil that is seggy wet for pro-
longed periods.
There are a number Of varieties,
the flowers Of which open In the
evening.
Good In Combination.
Day lilies make an excellent
combination with azaleas in spite
of the common. belief that they
prefer q soil that Is more nearly
neutral. Flowering as they do
after the azalea blooms have
passed, the day lilies serve to
prolong the usefulness for such an
area. Day lilies have q luxuriant
Suliage effectively employed as q
foreground planting for taller
growing perennials and even
shrubbery, although they should
not be expected to compete with
shallow-growing tree or shrubbery
roots and still be vigorous and
free-fiowering.
The selection Of day lilies for
color combinations with other
perennials Is a field that Is both
intriguing and rewarding. Since
the range of shades of yellow to
orange to fulvous red and pink is
very great 1t is possible to develop
choice groupings that give char
acter and charm to the garden.

Show to Feature
Rare Chinese Lilies:
Breeder to Speak

Considerable effort has been
expended to have a number Of
recently collected Chinese lilies
In bloom for display at the
Seventh Annual Lily Show Of the
Garden Club Of Virginia. TO be
held in the Fairfax High
School gymnasium Wednesday and
Thursday. The North American
Lily Society is cooperating in the
show which is sponsored locally
by the Garden Club Of Fairfax.
The collection Of Chinese lilies
Is of particular interest because
1t is believed to contain species
which are new TO the Western
world and may not have been de-
scribed by botanists. In addition.
there will be several exhibits
showing the various methods Of
propagating and fertilizing lilies.
A wide range Of kinds and
varieties of lilies have been pro-
missed by amateur and CONNER
cial growers from all sections Of
the country. The visitor will have
an unusual opportunity Of seeing
the many kinds Of this classical
garden flower now available.

day lily with peonies, Siberian iris

in the flower border over q longer

ing color pictures. The tall-bearded
iris border Is in flower for but a
few weeks in the late spring and
then we tend to forget 1t for an
other year. This will not be the
case If we allot space to day lilies.
BY Pool or In Rock Garden.
Day lilies may be used in plant
ings beside the lily pool just as
effectively as the Japanese iris
which are sorely troubled by the
japanese beetle. Dwarf day lilies
may be used in the sunny rock
garden as well as in one that is in
light or partial shade.
These suggestions for the use Of
day lilies are only a start for there
are many other situations In which
they may be effectively employed.
Along pathways. under pergolas.
around bird baths ana sundials,
and a host of other situations may
be effectively handled in whole or
in part with one or more clumps

ey Wilbur N. Younaman

The use Of day lilies In the home
garden has increased greatly since
plant breeders have an extensive
array Of new colors. forms and
habit of growth. During the past
IS years the plant breeders have
extended the color range and
Towering season. We may now
have day lilies In flower from May
until October. The shapes Of the
flower have been greatly modified
and we have dwarf as well as tall
growing varieties.
Free from insect and disease
injury and its relative tolerance
Of soil and other growing con-
ditions, we might well employ the
day lily in a greater variety Of
situations.

Wilted Fruit Leaves
Injurious to Stock

Farmers should use care to pre-
vent livestock from eating wilted
leaves Of such trees as cherry
plum and peach. according to
botanists.
When the leaves Of the wild pit
fruit varieties wilt. botanists said
q chemical change takes place and
hydrocyanic acid is formed. This
Is deadly poison.
= Wild pit fruit trees should be
removed from pastures and from
fence rows where cattle can get
to them. When the trees are re-
moved. stumps should be killed to
