Enchanting LILIES for Your Garden 



Lilies are as easy to grow as any other type of bulbs ii planted at the recommended depth in good 

 garden soil. Manure, except if thoroughly rotted, never should be mixed with the soil where they are 

 planted. However they like a winter soil mulch of weM-rotted manure which is taken off in early spring. 

 A porous, vv^ell drained soil rich in humus is important. They are showv garden plants preferring partial 

 shade to full sun and, if given proper treatment, will last for many, many years.
