NAME OF HARDY LILY.

n I growth of lea\cs in the fall. In 



the spiiiin- they send iiji flower stalks and 



lilooin ill the sninnier. This I'all J found 



on the flower stalk near the ground a 



lot of small luillis. These I ealhered and 



pill in a pot. I ha\e some ernwiuj^r from 



them. Will ymi iell me how' to care I'oi

 time the picture was taken.
