Field of Lilium regale at our Roslindale Nursery 



Lilium Regale. {The Regal Lily.) Mr. E. H. Wilson, the famous plant col- 

 lector, collected for us the original bulbs, in North-Western China. He 

 considers this the finest of all Lilies. It is absolutely hardy, and is e.'ccellent 

 for forcing. It has been predicted that this will become the Easter Lily 

 of the future, and being so hardy, may be grown at home. The flower.? 

 are white, slightly suffused with pink, with a beautiful shade of canary- 

 yellow at the centre, and extending part way up the trumijet. It is delight- 

 fuUj' perfumed, reminding one of the Jasmine, and lacking the heavy, op- 

 pressive odor of most Lilies. Blooms out-of-doors early in July. Awarded ;i 

 Gold Medal by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, and a first-cla.-:3 

 certificate by the Royal International Exhibition, London, 191J. (Bulbs 

 ready in October.)
