MICHELL’S SPECIAL BRAND LILY BULBS 
Suggestions in Connection with the Growing 
of Hardy Lilies Under Glass 
Hardy lilies should be grown cool and given 16 to 18 weeks 
from time of planting to bring them into bloom, so the best results 
can be obtained. In fact, if you can give them longer to come into 
flower it is better. Where they are forced with plenty of heat, the 
result is that you get good foliage with not so many early blooms. 
We have particular reference to Lilium Magnificum, Melpomene, 
Rubrum and Album. 
HARDY JAPANESE LILIES 
A splendid proposition; they force readily in a moderate tem¬ 
perature, as described above. Prices are for shipment up to May 
1st, and include all cold storage charges. After this date an addi¬ 
tional 20 cents per case, per month, will be made for cold storage 
and insurance charges.

carefully packed and can be stored in a cold cellar. These pips 
should not be compared with native grown stock which usually 
throw an average of 2 to 3 flowers to the clump; pips are washed 
clean and packed in peat moss, thus making transportation light.
