TENUIFOLIUM —(See illustration page 1.) This is still 
the “gayest of little lilies” with its bright cheery red 
blossoms, bringing into our gardens a “blotch of red” 
in May and early June. I am trying to place the price 
of this lily within the reach of every garden, so you can 
grow a “quantity” of them. Grows 1 to 2 ft. Blooms 
Mav-June.

TENUIFOLIUM GOLDEN GLEAM —My field of this 
lily in May was just what the name implies—a gleam 
of gold. It resembles the Tenuifolium only in size and 
shape and height. Height 1 to 2 ft. Blooms Mav-June.

TESTACEUM (X ankeen)—This is an outstanding lily 
of soft apricot or yellow buff, whose demand far ex¬ 
ceeds the supply. In some localities it demands extra 
care to grow it, but where one is successful, undis¬ 
turbed clumps will give you a good bloom for years. 
Tt is the only lily of its color and truly worth the price. 
Plant this lily EARLY. Place your orders EARLY. 
Height 2-5 ft. Blooms June-July.

TIGRINUM splendens—T know that some people do not 
care for the Tiger lily, and T sometimes wonder if it 
isn’t because of the name “Tiger”, for I’m sure if they 
could see my private garden in late August or early 
September, they would be more than pleased with the 
tone the Tigrinum splendens gives to my garden. I 
scattered them here and there throughout the border, 
and just left them alone—and one bulb that four 
years ago had one sturdy stalk, this year lias sixteen 
sturdy stalks. It will be almost a garden in itself when 
it blooms in late August or early September. Would¬ 
n't you enjoy a few of them in your garden? Height 
4 to 6 ft. Blooms August-September.

TIGRINUM flore pleno—This is the only double lily I 
have. The word “lily” seems to associate itself in our 
minds with a single blossom, and we sometimes resent 
the thought of a double lily, but I think you will find 
this double lily an addition to your garden, not only 
because it is an attractive lily in itself, but it will pro¬ 
long the “reign of the Tigers” after most of the other 
lilies are gone. It grows 3 to 5 ft. Blooms Aug.-Sept. 
S:x bulbs $2.00; 12 bulbs $3.50; 25 bulbs $6.85 
UMBELLATUM —The Umbellatum is very reliable, is 
early flowering, has many umbellate upright blossoms
