The Washington Lily 



Mr. Burbank's experiments with the lily tribe have been 

 almost numberless. He has made hybridizing and selecting ex- 

 periments with almost every variety of lily under cultivation, and with 

 many wild species. The specimen here shown is the species 

 known as Lilium Washingtonia. Its strains have 

 been blended with those of many other 

 species in Mr. Burbank's gardens.
