IN MY LADY'S GARDEN 



L. speciosum Kroetzeri ; both should be added to the list 

 of our finest lilies, with the white trumpets of L. longi- 

 florum ; and the apricot blooms of L. Henryi (a Chinese 

 lily from the heights of the Yang-tze-Kiang river) must not 

 be omitted, although this lily does better in the border than 

 in a pot. 



Tiger lilies (especially the fine variety Lilium tigrinum 

 splendens) are absolutely hardy, and very decorative in the 

 garden, whilst Madonna lilies (Lilium candidum) are 

 amongst the finest of garden bulbs. They should not, 

 however, be planted in the spring, as they are already in 

 full growth. 



Lilies of all kinds do well in a town garden, and may 

 even be grown in boxes or pots to adorn a balcony in 

 London if their cultivation is carefully carried out.
