HARDY LILIES for Fall Planting 



Lilies require a slightly acid soil, open, porous and well drained. Most Lilies do best 

 in filtered sunlight in the Washington area. Put not more than an inch of soil over the 

 Madonna Lily bulbs. All others need from 4 to 6 inches. Delivery dates vary, depending on 

 the variety. With few exceptions our Lilies are especially grown for us by Jan de Graaff, of 

 Gresham, Oregon.

 double and single varieties. They make a 

 good showing in the garden and are favorite 

 flowers for cutting. In planting, the crown 

 should never have more than 2 inches of 

 soil over it. If planted too deep, Peonies will 

 not bloom. The number following the

 votes of the members of the American 

 Peony Society throughout America and
