Lilies are indispensable for planting in borders, formal gardens or amongst shrubbery. 
LILIUM REGALE. (The Regal Lily.) 
If by Parcel Post add postage at zone rates; weight per dozen, 7 lbs. 
This grand new species is acknowledged to be the finest lily in cultivation. The 
flowers are white, slightly suffused with pink, with a beautiful shade of canary- 
yellow at the centre of the trumpet. It is delightfully fragrant, reminding one 
of the Jasmine and lacking the heavy oppressive odor of most lilies. In this section 
it blooms early in July. It is absolutely hardy and when established increases 
rapidly. Plant the bulbs 5 or 6 inches deep, and after the ground is frozen, cover 
over with leaves or other litter to prevent alternate freezing and thawing. (Octo- 
ber and November delivery.) Large Bulbs, $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz.; $75.00 
per 100. 
LILIUM CANDIDUM. (Tre Madonna Lily.) 
If by Parcel Post add postage at zone rates; weight per doz., 10 lbs. 
This beautiful lily of the purest satiny-white, borne majestically on tall straight 
stems, is one of the first of all to bloom, the flowers opening in June just at the time 
when the hardy blue Larkspur is at its best. The two may be interplanted, pro- 
ducing a contrast in blue and white of unrivalled beauty. Plantings in the hardy 
border and amongst shrubbery is equally effective. The bulbs should be set in a 
handful of sand, slightly tilted on their sides, to ensure perfect drainage. Set them 
about 5 or 6 inches deep, and protect during winter with a mulch of leaves and 
other coarse litter. The bulbs we offer are grown for us in France and are the large 
variety, producing pure white, deliciously fragrant flowers. (September and Octo-

The bulbs may be potted from August onward in a compost of equal 
parts turfy loam, leaf mold, rotted cow manure and sand. It is best 
to start them in pots not exceeding twice their own diameter, in which 
they may remain until started eight inches or more. They should be 
transferred then to larger pots in which to bloom, exercising great care 
not to disturb the roots or break away the soil from about them, and 
setting them considerably deeper in the larger pots. This method pre- 
vents the soil from becoming sour, and enables the roots forming at the 
base of the stem to become feeders, greatly increasing the number and 
size of the blossoms.
