BY DISBUDDING LILY BULBS 



in the fields in Japan about July ist, when the buds are only half developed, much of 

 the strength of the bulb is preserved. Horseshoe Brand Giganteum fields are all dis- 

 budded at the proper time. This means quite some work, for it not a light job to dis- 

 bud between two and three million lily plants. However, it is done because it makes 

 the bulbs more solid and compact, much stronger, and better able to stand the Cold 

 Storage strain, should it be required. This is likewise one of the reasons why Horse- 

 shoe Brand Giganteum have such a good flowering capacity, as compared with some 

 other brands.

 able list of introductions. It is indispensible. It is a very earl}' 

 and free bloomer, matures quickly, making very perfect flowers
