BODDINGTON'S ^yUCltcVl/ BULbT 



Lilies for Growing and Forcing Under Glass, in the Greenhouse, 



Conservatory or Sunny Window 



LILIES 



Lilies should be potted immediately upon receipt, if intended for growing 

 in pots or for forcing. The soil should be rich, the pot well drained. The bulla 

 should be set about half-way below the surface or rim of the pot and lightl)- 

 covered with soil. After potting, give a thorough watering and set outside in a 

 coldfranie or shady situation ; then cover with ashes or long straw. After they 

 have stood from three weeks to a month, bring into the house, allow plant to 

 grow above pot 4 to 6 inches, then fill pot with soil to within i inch of top of 

 pot, and force gently. After showing buds, a higher temperature may be used. 



Lilium Harrisii, or True Bermuda Easter Lily 



Owing to a continued drought in Bermuda, lasting from March till "diggini; 

 time," the crop of Harrisii (true) shows a shortage of over 50 per cent in the 

 sizes 7 to 9 and upward. We had the opportunity to buy hybrids at a cheapei 

 rate, but promptly turned it down. At this date we hope to fill our advance 

 orders, but will have practically no surpluses of our Quality Brand True 

 Harrisii, except in sizes 5 to 7 and 6 to 7. This also applies to Lilium Jamesii.

JAPANESE EASTER LILIES 



The Lilinnt longijiorvm, or Japanese Easter Lily, is, in reality, the parent 

 <jf the Lilium Harrisii, or Bermuda Easter Lily, and is grown more exten- 

 sively than this variety by the florists, owing to the shortage of the larger sizes 

 of L. Harrisii this season. We recommend and suggest to intending purchas- 

 ers that, where the 

 large bulbs are de- 

 sired, they buy the 

 L. longiflortiyn, of 

 which we offer three 

 varieties, as follows : 



Japanese Easter Lily, Lilium longiflorum (type) 



Lilium Longiflorum FormOSUm (Japan-Grown I 



The wonderful new Easter Lily from the island of Formosa. Easy to grow and 

 free from disease. j-^^,, ^oz. ,00
