FOUR FINE HARDY LILIES 
Here are four of the finer true hardy Lilies, 
kinds that are easy to grow in any garden, that 
do not require special culture or coddling, and 
that will give you a long wealth of splendid 
bloom for border decoration or cutting. Plant 
the bulbs upon arrival, since they soon shrivel 
if kept out of ground. These bulbs are small 
blooming size, and should give good flowers first 
season. 
LILIUM REGALE—The Queen of Lilies. Great 
flaring fragrant trumpets of glistening white¬ 
ness, but of softest lemon yellow in the deep 
throat, and with rosy shading on the reverse. 
Very lovely, very easy, very sure to please; and 
it is good enough to deserve three “verys” in a 
row. Three for 35c; 5 for 50c; 11 for $1.00. 
LILIUM DAVURICUM — The splendid Candle¬ 
stick Lily. The brilliant blossoms, like up-facing 
chalices over-flowing with molten fire, are carried 
in clustered branching form. The colorings are 
amazingly bright and variable, from buff-apricot, 
through orange, clear or scarlet-stained, to red 
of cinnabar or even velvet crimson. Three for 
40c; 10 for $1.00; 25 for $2.25. 
LILIUM HENRYI—The Amber Lily. Very many 
recurved flowers of deepest golden amber. The 
petals have a brittle thickness, as though they 
had been molded from wax. Tall, graceful, arch¬ 
ing stems. About the hardiest of Lilies; long- 
lived, dependable, and particularly good for cut¬ 
ting. Thrives in sun or shade. Three for 40c; 
10 for $1.00; 25 for $2.25. 
LILIUM TENUIFOLIUM — Called Coral Lily, 
but the blossoms have more the red intensity 
and soft glossiness that one sees in old Chinese 
lacquer work. The plants are open pyramids of 
vivid color in late spring or early summer. A 
sure and easy Lily that will be appreciated in 
the large rockery as well as for border clumps, 
and it is the one Lily that makes a showy bed¬ 
ding plant. Excellent for cutting. “A” size 
bulbs. 3 for 35c; 5 for 50c; 11 for $1.00. 
CALL THEM BULBS 
Even though the various and intriguing kinds 
offered here may not be truly bulbs, we might 
just as well call them so, for they are very bulb¬ 
like, and are handled and planted in the dor¬ 
mant or semi-dormant state in precisely the 
same way as bulbs. They are really very good; 
very hardy, too. 
TRILLIUM OVATUM—Largest and showiest of 
the Trinity Lilies, with flowers that open snowy 
white, but soon suffuse with a rich pink that fin¬ 
ally deepens to a royal wine-purple. It loves 
moist rich woods, but will thrive in the garden, 
if given soil with a bit of peat moss or leaf mold 
added, and, if possible, a position that is shaded 
part of the day. Of course they can be over¬ 
watered, but at least do not let them suffer from 
drought. They are beautiful enough to repay a 
little fussing. Decidedly winter-hardy if ouier 
conditions are right. 3 for 40c; 9 for $1.00.
