ESTACEUM (L. excelsum)—Handsome nan¬ 
keen-yellow flowers borne on stalks 4 to 
6 feet tall. The demand always exceeds 
the supply of this fine lily. Success is not 
so easy as with some kinds, but the 
achievement is well worth the effort. 
Select a sunny situation protected from 
chilly winds and late spring frosts. The 
soil type is not so important if good drain¬ 
age is provided. Plant 4 inches deep. 4 to 
6 feet. July. $1.00 each, 3 for $2.75, 12 
for $10.00. Plant this lily early. No de¬ 
liveries after October 20th. 
WASHING-TONIANUM (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 blooms 
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¬ 
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.
