Lilies and Bulbous Plants 
HIS group of plants is one of the most indispensable for showy effects, particularly 
the Trilliums and Liliums. The former blossom in earliest spring, and 
delight in rich, moist, shady locations, while the latter thrive in the more open 
places and produce most gorgeous results in summer when planted in masses, as 
nearly all plants should be for best etfccts. Lilies require rich soil, with plenty of 
moisture, but well drained, and make a grand show planted among Rhodo- 
dendrons or other shrub evergreens or in a deciduous shrub border. Elame 
Goodale has sung of Liliuna .superbum, the splendid "Turk's Cap Lily,"

In each a blaze of scarlet, half blntted'out with sold "
