LILIES FOR DIFFERENT SOILS 49 



Good average garden soil or a mixture of medium 

 loam and leaf soil will suit 



BatemannicB longiflorum 



candidum Martagon 



chalcedonicum pyrenaicum 



concolor pomponiu7n 



croceuvi speciosum 



coridion szovitsianuin 



elegans tenuifoliuni 



Hansoni testaceum 



Henryi tigrinum 



These therefore may be regarded as Lilies for every 

 garden except those that are of a very light sandy 

 peat, and even in these croceuni, tigrinum, Henryi, 

 Brownii, and rubellum will do very well. 



The Lilies that prefer a stiffer soil and will do in 

 it as well as in the average soil are : — 



candidum * neilgherretise 



chalcedonicum * nepalense 

 giganteum pomponiiim 



Humboldti szovitsianum 



Kra?neri * sulphureum 

 Leichtlini testaceum 



* Lowi washingtonianum 



Martagon 



Those that like peat and moisture are : — 



canadense philadelphictitn 



Grayi superbum 



pardalinum Wallacei 



Parryi auratum 



* These are tender and require house culture, except in quite the 

 south of England.
