such at Hyperion Ophir. Augusta

Bank Covers
Daylilies are normally asso-
ciated with the perennial bcr-
der. but they may be used In
several other situations. They
make q good border along the
driveway. They are good for
accent points at the gate. Some
kinds make an excellent bank
cover. The cid tawny daylily Ia
one Of the best to control ero-
sion on q slope and to serve as
a ground cover under trees,
Marguerite Perry Is just as good.
There are two other points
that might be mentioned. Some
daylilies flower in the evening,
and they are most useful for
that section Of the garden which
Is most used In the evening.
Some varieties remain open
until late in the evening, while
others open in the late after
noon. Several Of the daylilies
have interesting fragrances. Last
but not least. 1t is well to deter
mine beforehand whether or not
the flowers can tolerate full
summer sun without sunburn-
ing. Most Of the newer varieties
are 50 described.

of one color and three Of an
other.
The zonals have O color ring
in the middle Of each petal and
those with snowy eyes or Threats
means that they are Of con-
trasting colors. II may be q
yellow throat and some will have
q darker color in the throat
than on the petals.
Lift and Divide
Now is the time to lift and
divide or buy new daylily plants.
The sooner We divide after
towering the more growth the
plants will make before cold
weather. It is seldom necessary
to lift and divide an established
clump unless 1t is getting too
large for its situation or more
clumps Of that variety are de-
sired.
It is usually easiest to loosen
the ball of earth enclosing the
roots and then pull the whole
clump from the hole. Dividing
is best done with two spading
forks. Thrust one into the
clump and push the other in
alongside as closely as possible.
They should be back to back.
BY pulling the handles together
the clump Is broken in two.
Each half may then be d.
vided in the same way.
II many small divisions are
desired then the quarters may
be pulled apart by hand.
Preparing for Plants
Cut the foliage in half. trim
on dead or injured roots and
reset in a .well-prepared soil.
Daylilies are quite tolerant, but
they richly reward good soil
preparation.
Incorporate compost or peat
moss and bone meal In the
planting hole, dug to a depth OF
IL to is inches and at least a
foot wide. Set 50 that plant will
be level with the soil after set
ting.
Because Of the great variation
in mature size Of the various
varieties, 1t Is not easy to make
a general rule for spacing. Some

Control Insects
On Vegetables

Insect control in the vege-
table garden begins with precau-
tons against cutworms. These
night operators will eirdle and
topple tomatoes and beans. Use
chlordane and a starter solution,
one cupful around the roots of
each trAnsplanted vegetable will
control them. Another method
Is to dust chlordane onto the
soil around the base Of the plant,
or along the rows 'of newly
sprouted seedlings. Either meth

old paper collar" method.
AS the season progresses squash
vine borers. bean beetles, Gu
cumber beetles. squash bugs,
cabbage loopers. Japanese bee
ties and aphids are prevalent
interlopers. An all-purpose gar
den dust will control all Of these
except the vine borers, and it
can be applied right UP until
harvest. Malathion is equally
effective and win control vine
borers as well, II applied every
week during the first month

Vigorous Clumps
Some daylily varieties bloom
for two to four weeks. depend
ting upon the size Of the clump.
The older and more vigorous the
clump the more flower stems it
will produce and the more buds
there viii be on each stem. How
ever. since each variety has a
definite blooming season it Is
usually desirable to make such
. selection Of varieties that there
viii be Towering clumps over
much Of the season-from late
May to mid-August. Elm and
Troy Hills are two Of the earliest
70 bloom.
Among the more commonly
grown varieties the peak Of the
Towering season is from mid
June to late July.
This year, with the gardening
season more or less topsy-turvy,
there has been some piling up
Of Towering seasons. The early
Towering DR.. tRegel was not
much ahead Of the Lemon lily.
Choice Of COlOrs
In addition to the variation
Of Towering season between va
rieties we also have a wide choice
Of colors. They range from a
very pale yellow through various
shades Of yellow and orange into
the pinks and reds.
Most gardeners are more in
trigued with the newer pinks
than with the reds, although
there has been much improve
ment in the reds.
Pink Dream, Daafu. Magic
Dawn. Pirouette, Sweet Mystery.
Delectable. Precious Treasure
and Lyric are considered great
improvements over Pink Radi-
ance, for instance.
The early reds were spoiled by
A fulvous overcast and 80 lacked
garden interest. Today we have
much clearer colors. Chivalry,
a deep, velvety red is looked
upon as one Of the tops. How
ever, Splendor is q fine crimson
which is so new that not many
will be interested in 1t at the
current prices.
There are other good reds
that are much lower in price
and still far superior to Rajah,
Morocco Red and Nabob. Mabel
Fuller and Mrs. Hugh johnson
are two moderately priced good
ones.
