the margins of plantations, or in ravines, & c., and always where there is more or less shade, and in soil which is 
sweet and well drained ; so that in choosing a situation for planting these, partial shade and perfect drainage 
should be attended to. The borders of Rhododendron and Azalea beds are found admirably suited for lily 
culture : they also do well amongst dwarf shrubs, or intermingled with herbaceous plants, and in the proximity

Culture In-doors. — The Lily succeeds best inacompostof fibry loam and peat, with plenty of sand, or leaf soil 
and loam with sand ; the top of the bulb should be covered at least one to two inches, and the pots plunged in 
ashes in a cold frame ; or the pots may be placed out of doors, and covered with ashes, as recommended in the 
culture of the Hyacinth, and there allowed to remain till the plants have speared through, or better still, let them 
remain till the flower buds are formed, then remove to the conservatory, corridor, or sitting-room. While the 
Lily is growing, a situation should be selected, or measures taken to prevent the sun s rays falling upon the 
flower pot. A vinery, or the north side of a hedge or wall, are suitable places. Lilies grown m pots, should 
have liouid manure twice a week, and the drainage must be perfect and the soil kept sweet. , , 
Wc have arranged the Lilies in accordance with Mr. Baker's classification, which is a natural grouping based 
on the shape of the flower ; these groupings with a few exceptions, represent also the older of flowering. 
Purchasers therefore selecting from each group, secure both diversity of form and succession of bloom.
