Hardy Water 
Location Sunshine and unchilled, undls- 
”“ turbed water are essential. 
Soil Should be mellow clay loam, fertilized 
with one-fourth well-rotted cow manure, 
about 12 inches deep. Horse and sheep ma¬ 
nures are dangerous to use. Of commercial 
fertilizers, Vigoro is probably as good as any. 
Water Any clean water will do, not in strong 
motion; its depth above soil not ar¬ 
bitrary, but 12 inches is best. 
Planting The longer roots should be firmed 
into the dirt slanting or flat, but 
set all shapes, so that the crown is even with 
the surface of soil. In case the pull of spread¬ 
ing leaves, or other disturbance loosens the 
root-hold, poke them back and refirm the soil 
or further bind them down with stones. 
The average space to allow for plants is 
about 2 feet square. 
Original propagation is slow ; S. & H. Lily 
roots are two or more years old, and ready to 
bloom. Shipping may commence about April 
first, and is practical up to the first of June. 
Established pools with a good assortment, be¬ 
gin showing flowers in May, each of an aver¬ 
age five-day existence, with unbroken con¬ 
tinuance and varying extravagance, until 
late fall.
