LILY OF THE VALLEY 



(Ready for Delivery in 



November,) 

 For open ground planting 

 we offer large clumps, each 

 containing many flowering 

 crowns. These may be set 

 from six inches to a foot 

 apart and covered three 

 inches. They succeed best in 

 ground which is rather moist 

 and partially shaded. 



For forcing, the pips are to 

 be preferred, being grown 

 under conditions tending to 

 promote vigorous and early 

 blooming. Twelve to eighteen pips may be planted in a 6- 

 inch pot, with all the fibrous roots carefully preserved, and 

 'ceeping the crowns above the soil. Place them in a tempera- 

 ture of about 80 degrees, cover the crowns with loops, moss, 

 and keep them constantly moist with tepid water. 

 Best Berlin. First-class selected pips for forcing. Doz., 30 cts.; 100, $2.00; 1,000,
