LILIUM TENUIFOLIUM 
This most desirable narrow - leaved slender lily grows 
about 18 inches high, producing pendulous flowers some¬ 
what resembling miniature Lilium Rubrum, and are brilliant 
scarlet, flowering outdoors in June. They should be 
planted about 4 inches deep and 3 inches apart. 
For under-glass culture they can be planted in a Dar¬ 
win tulip bulb pan, set 4 inches deep, since they are a 
stem rooting type. They come into bloom in approxi¬ 
mately 14 weeks. Also, owing to their slender stems and 
fine, narrow foliage, Lilium Tenuifolium can be planted 
between carnations right in the benches. 
Bulbs of Lilium Tenuifolium are now obtainable at a 
low price, and we believe that florists will find them 
profitable, especially growers who operate in conjunc¬ 
tion a retail store, as they are exceptional for basket 
work, etc.
