October for best results. Make fall top growth and may need 
mulching for winter protection in very cold climates. Set bulbs 
4 or 5 inches deep in good fertile soil. Bulb iris are very beauti¬ 
ful and make excellent cut flowers.

Lily Bulbs 
All of the li'y bulbs listed herein, are so far as we know 
hardy or reasonably so. It may be that in districts with very 
severe winters some covering of straw or leaves will be helpful. 
Large and medium size bulbs should be set upright, covered 
with 6 inches or so of soil, bulblets about 3 inches. Candidum 
and Testaceum seem to prefer shallow planting, 2 or 3 inches of 
soil on top of bulbs and must be fall planted. A well worked 
and fertile soil, kept free of w^eeds and grass should be used. 
While some shade is agreeable, bulbs should not be set too near 
heavy rooting shrubery or trees.
