ELEGANS 
LILIES 
These are a class of upright flowered 
hybrid lilies, similar in form and color 
range to the umbellatum group, but of 
shorter growth. They are excellent for 
the border when planted in masses and 
fine for cutting. Plant 4 inches deep. 
ALICE WILSON —A very dwarf variety with 
large, full flowers of bright lemon-yellow, 
finely spotted. 12 inches. Early July. 50c 
each, 3 for $1.35, 12 for $5.00. 
KINBUSEN —A fine Japanese variety with 
large flowers shading from crimson at the 
base to orange at the tips. 14 inches. June. 
40c each, 3 for $1.10, 12 for $4.00. 
MAHOGANY— Very choice and distinct, with 
large shapely flowers of glowing crimson 
lake. The deepest color yet produced. 
Should be planted in partial shade, 5 
inches deep. Height 12-18 inches. June. 
50c each, 3 for $1.10, 12 for $4.00. 
CALLOSUM — An interesting and graceful 
species from Asia allied to L. tenuifolium 
but blooming about a month later. The

CANADENSE —The meadow lily of Canada. 
Graceful bells, minutely spotted, varying 
from red to yellow. Plant 8 inches deep. 
2 to 3 feet tall. June-July. 30c each, 3 for 
80c, 12 for $3.00. 
CANDIDUM —The beautiful Madonna Lily 
with its immaculate flowers and sweet 
fragrance, will always be a favorite in 
June gardens. Delphiniums and rambler 
roses are good companions for it. We 
advise against planting it with other lilies 
or fertilizing it. A period of drouth after 
flowering is beneficial. Sunlight is the 
natural destroyer of the Botrytis fungus 
which sometimes kills the foliage of this 
lily. Plant the bulbs not more than an 
inch below the surface. They should be 
in the ground by September 15th in order 
to form a healthy growth of autumn foli¬ 
age, which is very important. Height 3 
to 5 feet.
