pleasing, that it may be said to constitute one half of its beauty; its
blossoms which appear in July and August, are twice the size of those of
the _flava_, of a tawny orange colour, without gloss or smell, the
Petals waved on the edge, the flowers are rarely or never succeeded by
ripe Capsules as in the _flava_, which is a circumstance that has been
noticed by PARKINSON; when these several characters, in which
the _fulva_ differs so essentially from the _flava_, are attentively
considered, we shall wonder that LINNÆUS could entertain an
idea of their being varieties of each other.

The _Hemerocallis fulva_, from its size, and from the great
multiplication of its roots, is best adapted to large gardens and
plantations.

May be propagated by parting its roots in Autumn.
