LI LI U M AURATUM. 
LILIUM AURATUM. 
The Golden-Banded Lily of Japan. 
This is justly entitled to the name often given it— The 
Queen of Lilies—as it is decidedly the most beautiful of 
all Lilies. The immense blooms—measuring nearly a foot 
in width when fully expanded—are produced in the greatest 
profusion, and are deliciously fragrant. In beauty of color 
and markings it surpasses all other Lilies; the large white 
petals are thickly spotted with rich chocolate-crimson, and 
have a bright golden-yellow band through the center of 
each. This magnificent Lily succeeds well everywhere, and 
should be in every garden. We offer the finest imported 
Japanese bulbs at 30 cents each, 6 for $1.50, or $3.00 per 
dozen, postpaid, by mail. 
Lilium Speciosum Rubrum. 
This is one of the finest Japanese Lilies. Very fine 
dark-crimson and white flowers, borne in clusters. Grows 
two to three feet high. Extra large bulbs 30 cents each, 6 
for $1.50, or $3.00 per dozen, postpaid, by mail. 
NERINE SARNIENSIS (Guernsey Lily). One of the best autumn Lilies. 
Flowers pale salmon color; very free bloomer. First-class bulbs 50 cents each ; 6 for 
$2.50; $5.00 per dozen. 
We especially recommend the above Liliums for planting in beds by themselves or 
among Rhododendrons and shrubbery. They should be planted not less than six or eight 
inches deep. Being perfectly hardy, they require no protection in winter, though in exposed 
situations it is advisable to give a slight covering of leaves or long manure.
