Hardy Garden Lilies 
No garden is complete without at least a few of these stately beauties, the blooming season of which may be 
extended from June to September if the proper varieties are planted. Large plantings of L. auratum, L. regale, and 
the Speciosum varieties are recommended, and also the handsome early-blooming varieties of L. elegans and the 
\merican L. superbum. They thrive in any well-drained garden soil, but do best in the hardy border or among 
-hrubbery. Plant bulbs twice their depth. 
The Japanese Lilies are especially attractive when scattered through the hardy border in clumps of three.
