HARDY LILIES 
Since the introduction of tlie beautiful Regal Lily from China 
Jess than thirty years ago the interest in hardy lilies has increased 
tremendously and it can safely l>o said they are becoming the most 
popular of all hardy bulbs. By making only a moderate planting 
one may easily have lilies in bloom from .Tune until October—what 
is more beautiful than a bouquet of cut lilies for the house? 
Taking lilies generally, they require a bit more care than some 
other garden plants-, but one can easily learn the simple wants of 
the popular varieties and enjoy them in their own garden. Prac¬ 
tically all lilies love leaf-mold. We have found that a mixture of 
peat, leaf-mold and sand has given excellent results with over 
twenty varieties. Most) varieties prefer some ground cover at the 
/base to protect the feeding roots from excessive heat. A mulch of 
peat 2 or 3 inches deep is. beneficial at all times. Prices arc for 
strong flowering size bulbs.
