Lilies, Lilium 
To grow lilies successfully they should have a well drained 
soil, be planted six to eight inches deep, and a little sand 
around each bulb to keep from rotting. They should be grown 
three or four years and then transplanted, preferably in Sep¬ 
tember, and set at once to prevent drying out. It is well to 
plant them among evergreens or plants with heavy foliage, 
and the beds covered with leaves or like protection during the 
winter. 
Our bulbs can be supplied in September or October, or 
early spring.
