Henryi. Sometimes called the “yellow 
speciosum.” The orange yellow re¬ 
flexing flowers are produced in Au¬ 
gust and early September. This lily 
produces very big bulbs, often at¬ 
tains a height of 7-8 feet or more, 
and is not only very floriferous but 
absolutely dependable, carries very 
rich green foliage. Must be planted 
8-10 inches deep for best results .. .25, .40, .60 each

Horsfordi. This charming hybrid was 
raised by the late F. H. Horsford at 
Charlotte, Vermont, and is still very 
scarce. It is the result of crossing 
L. Maximowiczii and L. Bate- 
manniae, the flowers which are quite 
large and reflexed are of a lovely 
apricot yellow color and open late 
in July . 1.50 
Humboldtii Magnificum. One of the 
best of the Californian lilies. Has 
done very well with me in the open 
but thrives better in an open wood¬ 
land glade where it will be protected 
from cutting winds. Flowers in form 
resemble superbum but are more 
heavily spotted with purple. Strong 
cultivated bulbs, far superior to 
those collected.60 7.00 
Japonicum (Krameri). The most love¬ 
ly of pink Japanese lilies. This has 
done amazingly well outdoors with 
me even when planted as late as 
Christmas week, many stalks have 
carried 6—7 flowers each in the open 
field and unprotected. The stories 
told in many catalogues that this lily 
is delicate and must be pot grown 
altogether is pure nonsense. Give it 
well drained soil, use plenty of sand 
around the bulbs laying them on 
their sides. Flowers mainly in July 
but will persist until well into Au¬ 
gust. Makes a fine variety also for 
pot culture.

Kelloggi. A very dainty and pretty 
Lily from North Western California, 
the stems attain a height of 2—4 
feet, flowers are pink spotted purple 
and are fragrant, likes a well 
drained position in a rockery, or on 
the banks of a sloping piece of wood¬ 
land ...
