VAUGHAN’S FLOWER SEEDS FOR SUMMER SOWING 
LILIUM Philippinense Formosanum Pure White 
LILIES FROM SEED 
The seed can be sown almost anytime, in flats, pans 
or pots. The soil should be a porous loam of good fertil¬ 
ity with no raw manures. A compost of rotted sod and 
sharp sand, with well rotted organic matter, cannot be 
improved upon. 
For indoor culture, the seed not to be covered more 
than H inch with a sandy soil. When large enough to 
handle, the seedlings should be pricked off into 2 inch 
pots, and then set out after danger of frost is over. 
Some lilies hav e the habit, under some circumstances, 
of waiting until the second year before top growth takes 
place. Often germination takes place the first year with 
no growth above the surface. 
Lilies can be transplanted at almost any stage of de¬ 
velopment. They are not exacting in the types of soils 
to which they were adapted, except that it be porous. 
They do not like a bakey, plastic clay, or lean, loose 
sands, unless such soils are ameliorated by the incorpo¬ 
ration of an abundance of organic matter which changes 
their substance.
