Umbellatum Lilies 
An early flowering group of hybrids 
from Lilium Davuricum. Easily grown 
and producing large heads of richly col¬ 
ored, erect flowers in June and early 
July. All the members of this group are 
satisfactory, if only for the reason that 
they will flower abundantly with little 
care and attention. They are seen to 
best advantage when planted en masse. 
The result is a wonderful display of 
rich color which may be combined with 
delphiniums and other perennials to 
produce a telling effect in the border. 
Golden Fleece. A striking form. Very large, 
clear golden yellow flowers, with a blush 
of scarlet at the top of the petals. $1.00 
each, 3 for $2.75, $10.00 doz. 
Grandiflorum. An extremely fine form, pro¬ 
ducing huge heads of bright orange-red 
flowers. 25c each, $2.50 doz. 
Mahogany. Very choice and distinct, with 
large shapely flowers of glowing crimson 
lake. The deepest color yet produced. 
Should be planted in partial shade as it 
fades in full sun. 50c each, 3 for $1.35, 
12 for $5.00. 
Splendidum. The finest of the highly col¬ 
ored varieties. Rich vermillion, with a 
contrasting tone of orange-green on the 
reverse surfaces. Very strong growing. 
60c each, 3 for $1.70, 12 for $6.00. 
Vermillion Brilliant. The most brilliant in 
color, having large heads of vivid blood- 
red flowers with broad, massive petals. 
50c each, 3 for $1.35, $5.00 doz. 
WARDII — A rare and beautiful martagon 
lily, discovered recently by the famous 
explorer, Kingdon Ward, in Tibet. When 
established, the plant attains a height of 
over 4 feet and carries a dozen or more 
graceful flowers, purple-pink, with dark 
purple dots. A bay in the Rhododendron 
bed is a good place for this lily. Set the 
bulbs 6 inches deep, in porous soil rich in 
leaf-mold. August-September. $5.00 each. 
WASHINGTONIANTJM (Mt. Hood Lily) — 
This fine species from the mountains of 
Oregon is the principal trumpet-flowered 
lily native of America. Tall, leafy stems 
bear as many as 25 sweet-scented IPooms 
which open white, but change to pink and 
wine color with age. Collected bulbs often 
supplied are liable to fail due to bruises 
and drying. Our garden-grown bulbs are 
fresh and healthy. Good drainage re¬ 
quired. Plant 10 inches deep. 4 to 6 feet. 
June. 40c each, 3 for $1.10, 12 for $4.00. 
Valley Type. In the past we have been ac¬ 
customed to considering this species as 
strictly a mountain lily, but research has 
disclosed the fact that in pioneer days a 
superior form possessed of wonderful vigor 
grew in great numbers in the grain fields 
and prairie lands of the upper Willamette 
Valley. In some places the farmers actu¬ 
[11 ] 
ally considered them as weeds. The great 
bulk of them have long since been killed 
out by cultivation and cattle. From some 
that remain a stock of seedlings has been 
worked up. These we now offer, confi¬ 
dent that they will prove thoroughly 
amenable to cultivation and demonstrate 
to those who plant them the true beauty 
of this splendid Oregon lily. The bulb is 
very different from the mountain form, 
being more compact and firm. Splendid 
bulbs, 60c each., 3 for $1.60, 12 for $6.00. 
WILLMOTTIAE —This is one of Mr. Wilson’s 
best introductions from Central China. It 
ranks among the finest hardy lilies. Foli¬ 
age long and very deep green. Flowers 
recurving, bright orange-red. 4 to 6 feet. 
July. 30c each, 3 for 80c, 12 for $3.00; 
50c each, 3 for $1.35, 12 for $5.00.
