HENDERSON'S HARDY LILIES 
Bring the Romance of the Ages to Your Garden 
Lilies commence flowering in June and with the various species 
maintain a continuous and unbroken succession in the shrubbery 
border. Most Lily Bulbs, being of late maturity, are not ready 
before October, November and December (the best time to plant 
them). Where the ground is liable to freeze up before the late 
lilies arrive it should be mulched with 6 to 8 inches of leaves or 
manure to keep it from freezing, so the bulbs may be planted on 
arrival.
