One OF the largest, most gorgeous, and hardiest of 
all garden lilies is Lilium regale. ‘Tall stalks, three to 
six feet high, produce funnel-shaped blossoms, often 
measuring six inches from tip to tip of opposite petals. 
Each stalk carries several flowers. 
And such coloring! Petals streaked with rosy-purple 
on the outside are pure white within, . . . the throat 
tinged with yellow-gold. In sunlight the rose of the 
petals becomes opalescent, a sight that is almost 
indescribable. The fragrance is exquisite. 
Plant Regal Lilies at a depth of about three times 
the diameter of the bulb, in rich soil that is not too 
light in texture. Good drainage is very important. 
Select a spot that is sheltered from cold winds. A 
ground cover of perennials or annuals helps conserve 
moisture and adds to the attractiveness of the lilies 
when in bloom. 
Enrich your garden with some of these truly royal 
flowers. FERRY-MORSE is offering big bulbs, eight 
to nine inches in circumference at 35c each; $3.50 
per dozen, postpaid.
