 bracing various tints of orange to almost red and 

 soft apricot and approaching crimson. Copious lists

LILIUM BATEMANNI^ (Japan) ; possibly a hybrid. 



Isolirion 



A good garden Lily, brought out by the well-known 

 firm of Lily growers, Messrs Wallace of Colchester. 

 It has unspotted flowers of an even apricot colour. 

 The stems rise about four feet. It is not of difficult 

 cultivation, doing well in ordinary good garden soil. 

 It should be planted rather deep, as it makes roots 

 from the stem.
