Wallace's 
Gold Medal 
Lilies 
as described above, truly represent 
Europe’s foremost quality produc- 
tion in Lilies. Ever since 1901, 
when Wallace’s, England’s Premier 
Growers of Hardy Lilies, won the 
Gold Medal at the Lily Conference 
on the continent, Wallace’s Lilies 
have been recognized as the stand- 
ard of perfection. In 1912, at the 
Royal International Show, they 
again won First Prizes and Gold 
Medal. Numerous other awards 
A Typical Garden of Wallace Lilies

leadership for Wallace’s, whom we 
are proud to represent on this 
continent.
