Beautiful, Hardy 
GARDEN HUES 
garden is complete without at least a few of these stately beauties, the blooming 
season of which may be extended from June to September if the proper varieties are 
planted. Large plantings of L. candidum, L. tigrinum, and the Speciosum varieties are 
1 ecommended, and also the handsome early-blooming American varieties, L. elegans and 
L. superbum. They thrive in any well-drained garden soil, but do best in the hardy 
bolder or among shrubbery. Plant bulbs twice their depth and when frost sets in, cover 
with 4 to G inches of leaves or litter, which should be removed in the spring.
