LILIUM AURATUM. 



Of all the Lily tribe, this is undoubtedly one of the finest, 

 whether we regard its size, its sweetness, or its exquisite ar- 

 rangement of color. Its large and graceful flowers are com- 

 posed of six petals, of a delicate ivory-white color, thickly 

 studded with chocolate crimson spots, and striped througli 

 the centre a golden yellow. From six to twenty flowers arr 

 produced on a stem, and as the bulbs acquire age anil 

 strength the flowers increase in size and number. It is per- 

 fectly hardy, and thrives best in a moderately dry, rich loam, 

 where the water does not lie in winter. Good drainage is 

 necessary to the successful growing of this Lily. Plant six- 

 inches deep, and cover lightly during winter.
