Retarded Lilies from Cold Storage 



The forcing of cold storage Lilies is no longer an ex|ieriment. If you have noi 

 already grown some of the'^e, wecan refer you to hnndreds of florists and gardeners 

 who make a success of this method and have Lilies "all the year round," the 

 same as Lily-of the-Valley. Lilium toiis^ifloruni «;iganti'i(nt takes about two 

 months to bloom from lime of planting from cold storage, and L. speciosum about 

 six months; so that Longiflorums wanted for Tlianksgiving and Christmas should 

 be planted about Septrinber 15 and Speciosum in July to August. 100
