Tiger Lily. 
Hardy Garden 
LILIES 
M ost Lilies will succeed in any light, sandy 
or loamy soil if sufficiently enriched and 
properly drained. Decayed peat and leaf 
mold are often successfully mixed with the other 
soil. Well-rotted cow manure is best, thoroughly 
mixed in, followed in after years by top dress¬ 
ing. Fresh manure must be avoided. 
In garden planting, the bulbs should be set 
no less than three times their own depth and 
mulched heavily after the first frosts come, for 
winter protection. In locating these plantings 
remember that Lilies object to frequent I'e- 
moval; they should be left undisturbed several 
years. 
We are offering no imported Japanese bulbs 
for fall sale. Among other reasons, they arrive 
SO late it is often impossible to put them into 
the ground, unless the planter has gone to con¬ 
siderable pains in preparation and protection of 
the bed where they are wanted. We will have 
them for early spring use. 
Our Lily prices include delivery.
