The Best Hardy Lilies 



These beautiful Lilies are quite hardy ; plant them four or five inches deep and give them a light covering of

m^ 





Its beautiful sprays of lovely t3^re white 

 bell-shaped flowers are always greatly ad- 

 mired. It is perfectly hardy, does not object to 

 shade and will do well in any odd corner you hap- 

 pen to have, but will of course give finer flowers and 

 more of them when given g:ood, well-prepared ground, 

 and partial shade ; they are entirely hardy and will increase 

 in number and beauty from year to year. .In house or conserv- 

 atory a half dozen roots in a 4-inch pot, kept cool awhile and 

 then given light and moisture, will soon produce an abundance of 

 lovely fragrant flowers. Price, stropg flowering roots, delivered free in 

 U. S., 3 for 15c.; 13 for 50c.; 35 roots, 1 bundle, 75c.; 100 roots, $3.00. 



NOTE— LILY OF THE VALI-EY is one of "the most useful pure white flowers 

 for Winter forcing and is grown in immense quantities in all the larger cities for the 

 Holiday Trade. They last a long time when cut, and are particularly beautiful when 

 colonized in large patches in partially shaded places about the lawn, and being entirely 

 hardy, will mostly take care of themselves without much attention, (Ready in November.)
