LILIUM SUPERBUM. 
(Turk's Cap Lily.) 
O lilies, upturned lilies, 
How swifl their prisoned rays 
'I'o smite with fire troni Heaven 
The faintinjj August days ! 
Tall tiriis of blinding beauty, 
As Vestals pure they hold : 
In each a blaze of scarlet 
Half blotted out with gold ! 
— Elaine Goodale. 
No description we can give will do justice to this magnificent American 
Lily. A clump of tliem is literally a "blaze of scarlet and gold." They 
grow stronger from year to year if given rich, deep soil. I have seen a per- 
fect pyramid of 46 blossoms on a single stem. 
We have over 100,000 strong, nursery grown bulbs of this beautiful Lily 
ready for sale ; and having made a specialty of propagating it, our prices are 
beyond compare. Nurserymen and seedsmen who are preparing catalogues 
should give careful attention to this and the following offers. I'arlcs, ceme- 
teries and large planters will not have another such opportunity for securing 
(ine Lily bulbs.

MILIUM GRAYI. 
(Gray's Lily. Harlan P. Kelsey, Introducer.) 
Since introducing this beautiful and rare Lily in 1SS8, we have sent them 
to nearly every civilized country in the world. We are now propagating it on 
a large scale, and have a stock of about 20,000 bulbs on hand, mostly second 
size. 
To such as wish to catalogue and push it, I will take pleasure in quoting 
a low price in lots of 5,000 or over.
