G-L ADIOLUS. 
TIxe followiiiff varieties of this popular class of plant are perfectly hardy, 
and succeed well in any good garden soil, but will amply repay a more gene- 
rous treatment. They are very effective when planted in large clumps. Their 
coming into flower fully a month earlier than the Hybrids of Gandevensis 
makes them particularly desirable.

LILIES. 
No flower-garden should be without, at least, one of every variety of this 
highly interesting and truly magnificent family of plants. They are un- 
equaled for the border, or Tor large imisses and beds, being perfectly hardy, 
and of the easiest culture. 
The Lily increases most abundantly by offsets, consequently they should bo 
taken up and separated every fall. The best time for this work is as soon as 
the frost has killed the tops, take up, separate, and plant out again the same 
day. Plant the sets by themselves in a good soil and they will flower well the 
second year. A large proportion of the sets from the Lilium Lancifolium will 
flower the first year. 
The L. Candidum should be taken up about the first of August, before 
they shoot forth their leaves, for while in a growing state they should remain 
unmolested. There is scarcely a soil or situation in the whole world, in which 
the Idly will not grow. It thrives best in a light turfy loam, with a lileral 
mixtvire of leaf mould. Most of the sixccics are natives of warm climates, 
but are perfectly hardy in all dry soils. 
Lilium Auratum. 
In consequence of a large importation of the lovely and fragrant .lapanese 
Lily, Lilium auratum, it is now offered at the undermentioned extremely low 
price. The golden-raycd Japanese Lily, the queen of this wondrous race, is 
now known in every garden where plants of value and beauty are regarded 
with admiration. Being now so well known, description of this gorgeously 
beautiful Lily is almost needless, but it may be as well to remark that it has 
proved itself as hardy in the open ground as any of the common Lilies ; it is 
therefore admirably adapted for cultivating either in the greenhouse, conser- 
vatory, or open air.

Lilium Auratum Rubra Vittatum. 
This variety is similar in is general character to the preceding ; its great 
distinctive feature is, that instead of yellow bands, as in the ordinary variety 
of auratum, the bands are bright red, and consequently very fascinating and 
attractive ; the spots are also larger, and of a very bright color.
