Lycoris Squamigera <>r Amaryllis Halil 
A JAPANESE FLORAL BEAUTY 
THE MAGIC LILY OP JAPAN i 
PERFECTLY hardy in this country. 
This Lily is distinct from any other in its large, beautiful pink 
flowers. Early in the spring it produces unusually attractive green 
strap-leaf foliage, too unique to compare with any other foliage we 
can mention. This foliage retains its full brilliancy until in July, when 
it ripens and disappears, and one not familiar with the plant would at 
this time judge from appearances that the bulb was dead. The most 
beautiful is yet to come, and about three weeks later, the bulb shoots 
a stalk from the ground like magic, to the height of three or four 
feet, developing a cluster of lilies from six to fifteen in number, each 
from three to four inches across, with coloring of the most pronounc¬ 
ed, yet delicate pink, imaginable, shaded with clear blue. The first 
flower retains its beauty of color and shape, even to the extremity 
of its petals until long after the opening of the last bud on the stem. 
This Lily is perfectly hardy and succeeds in ordinary garden soil. 
The bulbs need no protection and can be planted in the fall or spring 
but we advise spring planting. Cover the crowns about four inches. 
If there is only one flower you order this year let it be this Won¬ 
derful Lily. It’s a most magnificent thing.

This is the most beautiful variety of Lilium Speciosum Rubrum 
which has only recently been discovered in the Southern Islands of 
Japan. It is something 1 entirely new of its class and we are 
pleased to offer our customers this year an opportunity of securing 
this Japanese beauty. It is the hardiest, most robust and free flow 
ering of all lilies, while in beauty it is simply beyond description. 
The plant grows from three to four feet high, producing flowers 
in great profusion, and very much richer in color and also of much 
larger size,_ with its stems more vigorous and erect than other 
lilies. ^ The illustration only shows part of a flower stalk and but 
little idea can be formed of its great beauty; but we feel per¬ 
fectly safe in saying, our customers after growing it, will pro¬ 
nounce it the most beautiful lily yet offered. Our stock of bulbs 
we hope are sufficient to supply all our customers who want to 
grow the greatest of all hardy lilies. Be sure and try a few bulbs.
