Lilium Auratum. 
CARTERS LILIUM AURATUM. 
The beautiful Goldcn-raycd Lily of Japan. 
This grand Lily has now been brought to such a popular 
price that it should b'e largely grown in every garden. In 
soils suitable to its taste it will thrive in increased vigour 
each season in borders, and should be extensively cultivated 
in such spots, it can be seen in its full beauty in association 
with ornamental shrubs and bold-leaved herbaceous plants. 
It flowers rather later in summer than some of its relations. 
We have again made arrangements for large consign- 
ments of this beautiful Lily to reach us direct from the 
growers, and are certain to handle the pick of the Japanese 
harvest. 
All bulbs are carefully sorted by hand, and are examined 
pers mally before despatch. 
Our consignments usually arrive from the middle of 
November onwards, and we book orders now for delivery as 
soon as the bulbs are to hand.

Lilium Spcciosnni Rnbrum. 
CARTERS LILIUM SPECIOSUM. 
Next to the Lilium Auratum we must place the Lanci- 
FOLIUM or Spkciosum, so exquisite in form and so easily 
cultivated. Specimens frequently may be seen flowering 
on balconies in the large cities late in summer, and coming 
at a time of year when flowers are somewhat scarce makes 
it doubly welcome. It thrives well out in the border, and, 
with its pure chaste white, orange, crimson-spotted, and 
rose-spotted flowers, is very attractive.
