LILIUM REGALE or MYRIOPHYLLUM 
Introduced from Western China by Mr. E. H. Wilson. It is hardly necessary 
to sing the praises of Lilium Regale, for is it not generally regarded as the “^st 
of all garden Lilies of recent introduction? It is very bold and vigorous, lhe 
sturdy stems, three to four feet high, being densely covered with long linear- 
lanceolate leafage, and each bearing two to four flowers. The center of the flower 
is flushed with yellow, shading to white at the outer edges, and externally the 
flowers are streaked with brown, shading to pink at the tips which shows throug 
the almost translucent petals with a delightful pearly tint. It is very distinct. 
Its constitution is as good as that of L. Henryi and it is one of the most beautiful 
of all Lilies. Moreover, it does well on limestone soil. Stem rooting, which means 
deep planting; 10 inches for the largest bulbs down to 6 inches for smaller sizes. 
One dozen at the rate of 10 bulbs by express, charges collect, for 50c and 35c sizes. 
We shall store for the winter for SPRING planting just two sizes ^of Rega e 
bulbs, 6 to 7 inches at 35c each, and 9 to 10 inches at 45c each, postpaid. Even 
the smaller size will produce a fine flower head.
