PLANT PERRY’S HARDY LILIES 
No garden is complete without Lilies. Suitable varieties may be found for almost any situation. The fullest 
measure of decorative effect is secured when Lilies are used in combination with other plants and shrubs. Striking 
effects are produced by planting them among tall growing perennials, in front of large shrubs, or among dwarf 
shrubbery, so that the blossoms may rise above its foliage. Provide a Winter mulch of peat moss.
