Marshall’s Matchless Lilies 
W. E. Marshall 8C Co., New York 
HARDY GARDEN LILIES 
Among the stateliest of all hardy plants, Lilies during their respective flowering seasons, constitute the chief attraction in the hardy 
border. They prefer a well-drained soil, and should remain undisturbed for years. In the Autumn give the bulbs a heavy mulching of leaves; 
coarse manure or straw will prove highly beneficial. 
Lilium Longiflorium Praecox 
HARDY LILIES OF OUTSTANDING 
MERIT 
A HARDY EASTER LILY 
(Lilium Longiflorum Praecox) 
It has been possible to plant Easter Lilies, in the garden, in Spring 
and have them bloom during the Summer but unfortunately these 
have not proven permanent. We are now in a position to offer you 
Lilium Longiflorum Praecox which is perfectly hardy and should 
remain in your garden as a real perennial. This variety is entirely 
distinct from the ordinary L. Longiflorum as the bulbs make an 
exceptionally strong root growth and produce new bulbs to insure 
permanency. The bulbs we offer are liable to produce three flower 
stems and each one carrying fine heads of bloom. 
Price, good flowering bulbs, 75c each; 3 for $2.00; $7.50 doz.; 
$56.00 per 100. 
LILIUM CHINOOKI—The Sunset Lily 
(Pardalinum Giganteum) 
Supposed to be a natural hybrid of L. Humboldti and L. Parda¬ 
linum, combining the sturdiness of both species. Tall in growth and 
appearing like a gigantic L. Pardalinum. Brilliant red with yellow 
center freely spotted maroon. 75c each; 3 for $2.00; $7.50 per 
dozen. 
GRIFFITH'S HYBRID 
SHUKSAN: Cadmium with a faint flush of red, with sparse dottings 
of black. Green at base of throat with buds of reddish hue. 
Anthers purplish black. 
Prices of above, bulbs measuring 6 to 8 ins. in diameter, $1.00 
each; 3 for $2.75; $10.00 per doz., postpaid. 
LILIUM MAX WILL 
This was one of the finest hybrids shown at the Lily conference 
in London, 1933. It is a cross between L. Maximowiczi and L. Wil- 
mottiae and combines the free flowering qualities of the latter with 
the sturdiness of the former. Color cinnabar-red. Flowering bulbs, 
$1.25 each; 3 for $3.50; $12.00 per dozen. 
THE CREELMAN LILY 
(Princeps Hybrid) 
The well-known Creelman Lily originated a few years ago, the 
result of a cross between L. Regale and L. Sargentiae. Previous to 
this event several crosses had been made using the same parentage 
and were classified as L. Princeps. The Creelman Lily is undoubtedly 
superior to the others in stamina and size of flowers. It may be 
called a glorified L. Regale coming into bloom about two weeks later. 
We do not claim that the bulbs we offer are the true Creelman 
Lily, but they are seedlings of the true parent and their blooms have 
shown remarkable form. Bulbs measuring 4 to 6 inches in diameter 
$1.50 each; $15.00 per dozen. 
The Creelman Lily 
"Consider the Lilies” 
No book ever published on Lilies has been so enthusiastically received by flower lovers and this acclaim 
has not been confined to America alone but throughout the entire world, eleven hundred copies having 
been purchased alone by the British public who hold the beautiful Lily in high esteem. 
In presenting this treatise, Mr. W. E. Marshall, the author, was prompted by a desire to assist the 
amateur but his wishes have gone beyond his expectations as his brochure is now recognized by experts 
as a text book on this interesting genus. 
Over one hundred varieties are described with complete history and cultural directions. A most inter¬ 
esting book to read, illuminated with 67 magnificent colored plates. 
There is only a limited supply of this book which will be sent postpaid for $2.00. It also may be 
procured free with a cash purchase of Lily bulbs amounting to ten dollars. 
LILIES FROM SEED 
Hardy Lilies may be grown from seed and brought into bloom in two years, while other species require a longer period. We 
have prepared a leaflet giving the varieties we offer in seeds and with cultural directions on same. Sent free on application.
