HARDY LILIES 
For Inside and 
Outside Planting 
The True Bermuda Easter Lily 
(Lilinm Harrisii) 
This peerless lily is the greatest acquisition to 
floriculture made in many years. The remarkably 
short time required to bring them into flower and 
the certainty to produce a profusion of bloom 
and also the ease with which they can he made 
to flower at any desired period, such as Christ¬ 
mas, Easter and other special occasions, render 
them invaluable. The flowers are delightfully 
fragrant, pure waxy white, of great substance, 
and if cut as soon as they are open, or partially 
open, they can be kept for two weeks. The quan¬ 
tity of bloom produced is marvelous; the average 
production of bulbs 5 to 7 ins. in circumference, 
even when forced, is from 4 to 6 flowers, and of 
bulbs 7 to 9 ins., 8 to 12 flowers; and, if desired, 
a second crop of flowers can be secured the same 
season by drying the plants off after blooming for 
a^ time and then again starting them.
