FLOWERING BULBS, PLANTS, ETC. 



IB 



LILIES. 



Candidum and Harrisii are 



ready to ship in August and 



the others in October or 



November. 



LILIES are pre-eminentlv 

 the grandest of all hardy bulb- 

 ous plants. What can exceed 

 in beauty and delicious fra- 

 grance the large, symmetrical 

 flowers of Auratum, or the 

 smaller but scarcely less beau- 

 tiful ones of Rubrum, and the 

 spotlessly white blossoms of 

 Longiflorum and Harrisii, or 

 of that old favorite, produced 

 in such profusion, Candidum? 



All of the species named 

 with the exception of Harrisii 

 are perfectly hardy. L. Candi- 

 dum should be planted in Sep- 

 tember or early in October, in 

 deep, rich, sandy soil, covering 

 the bulbs about 3 inches. The 

 Japanese sorts should be 

 planted in November, covering 

 the bulbs about 9 inches. 

 Should the winter prove se- 

 vere, protect the bulbs with 

 light covering of straw or 

 long manure, to be removed 

 early in the spring.
