THE REGAL LILY 
The Regal Lily is one of the most re¬ 
liable of the hardy varieties and may be 
planted with confidence for a garden of 
lilies. 
The trumpet shaped flow^ers are white, 
with a canary yellow throat; the reverse 
of the petals is tinted with pink or a rich 
maroon red in varying degrees of color. 
The Regal Lily produces an abundance 
of pleasing fragrance, both in or out o’ 
doors; altogether the most outstanding 
hardy lily. 
It is a profuse bloomer when well es¬ 
tablished, commonly with eight to twelve 
flowers on a stem, sometimes twenty- 
four or more. The height of the lily is 
from three to five feet. Its blooming 
season begins in late June or early July. 
All in all, we wish to emphasize the 
hardiness, the reliability of blooming and 
the exquisite beauty of the Regal Lily a 
truly Regal flower.
