bortrytis proof than any other can- 
didum form. All our larger sized 
bulbs were sold and we only had two 
small sizes to plant out. These 
flowered over a week earlier than 
any other type and while unsprayed 
have not shown a trace of disease in 
a season very favorable to its spread. 
Third sized bulbs have carried 10-15 
flowers each, customers report 19-26 
on the larger sizes bought. Many 
bulbs do not make any rosettes of 
leaves like the other types but even 
tiny bulbs will bloom. The discovery 
of this new form is the most import¬ 
ant one made in lilies since that of 
regale. While we will have a good 
stock of this lily to offer, demands are 
likely to exceed the supply and early 
applications for bulbs are suggested. 
These will be ready early in August.
