SULPHUREUM —This lovely species from the 
mountains of Burma is one of the world’s 
best lilies. From one to several large 
trumpet flowers of great substance are 
borne on tall, wiry stems. The name is 
indicative of the color—sulfur yellow. The 
fragrance is very sweet. Being one of the 
last of the trumpet lilies to flower, it lends 
its distinctive charm to the gardens of 
late summer and early autumn. Formerly 
the only supply of this lily was the wild, 
collected stock which reached the market 
only after months of exposure and severe 
treatment. Our fresh Oregon grown bu’bs 
will be found superior in every way to the 
bruised and withered specimens from 
Burma. Prefers a sandy leaf-soil. Plant 
8 to 10 inches deep. Protect in cold cli¬ 
mates with a heavy mulch in winter. 4 to 
6 feet. August-September. 
Flowering size, 50c each, 3 for $1.35, 12 
for $5.00. Medium size, 75c each, 3 for 
$2.00, 12 for $7.50. Large size, $1.00 each, 
3 for $2.75, 12 for $10.00.

hybrids developed by Dr. Griffiths of the

tween Pacific Coast native lilies. It ap¬ 
pears as a fine form of Lilium Humboldtii, 
but inherits the robust constitution of 
Lilium pardalinum which is the other par¬ 
ent. The color is capucine-yellow, spotted 
at the base with claret brown ranging to 
morocco red at the tips. 5 to 7 feet. July.
