HARDY JAPANESE LILIES 



For Outdoor Planting, or Growing in Pots for Summer Flowering 



Nearly all the Lilies which are cultivated 

 in pots for conservatory and greenhouse 

 decoration are also well adapted for growing 

 in the open ground, and in suitable soil they 

 make an imposing display. The following 

 varieties are generally recognized as border 

 flowers, and with good reason, for the most 

 inclement winter does not injure them. If 

 left undisturbed, they present an increased 

 number of flowers for several seasons. All 

 the varieties of Lilies on this page do grandly 

 in pots for conservatory decoration in the 

 summer months. For cultivation of Lilies 

 outdoors, see page 25.
