HENRYI— The Golden Speciosum 
HENRYI (The Golden Speciosum)— 
This fine lily was discovered on the 
limestone cliffs of the Yangtze Gorge 
by Dr. Augustine Henry. Its exotic 
charm, rich color, hardiness and de¬ 
pendability place it high among the 
favorite garden lilies. In the North¬ 
west it frequently grows 8 feet tall, 
bearing from 10 to 20 large, recurv¬ 
ing flowers. The golden orange color 
is enhanced by a prominently green 
nectar furrow in the middle of each 
petal. In burning sunlight the color 
is liable to fade. This is overcome by 
planting in partial shade. Lilium 
Henryi is excellent for cutting. It 
will keep in good condition for two 
weeks or more, until the last buds 
open. The flowering time is in Aug¬ 
ust.
