LILIUM 
LANCIFOLIUM (Speciosum) RUBRUM. 
Next to the Lilium auratum we must place the Lancifolium 
or Speciosum, so exquisite in form and so easily cultivated. 
Specimens may frequently be seen flowering abundantly from pots 
in the squares and on balconies in the very centre of London and 
other large cities late in summer, and coming at a time of year 
when flowers are somewhat scarce makes it doubly welcome. It 
thrives well out in the border, and, with its pure chaste white, 
crimson-spotted and rose-spotted flowers, is very attractive. 
Rich crimson spots, 55/- per loo ; 7/6 per doz. ; 9d. each. 
Extra large bulbs, 80/- „ 10/6 „ 1/- „ 
(For other Lancifolium Varieties, see page 17.)
