JBdlam BTestaceum 
Also known as "Excelsum” and as the "Nankeen Lily.” 
One of the choicest garden Lilies. The warm apricot tone 
almost a cafe au lait, set off by brilliant orange anthers, 
puts it in a color class by itself; in fact, many people 
consider it the most graceful and lovely of all Lilies. It 
is beautiful for every kind of garden use but because of 
its tender coloring, must be planted in a mixed border 
with brighter flowers. In combination with light-shaded 
Delphiniums or with the Madonna Lily, which it resem¬ 
bles, it is most effective. It has the texture of Lilium 
Candidum, with reflexed petals and does well under the 
same conditions as Candidum. Four to five feet high, 
June-July flowering. (Color illustration, page P). 
brown on the "ribs," shaded through the almost trans¬ 
lucent petals with a delightful pearly tint; the contrast 
between the color of the reverse of the petals and the 
gold shading of the throat is extraordinarily beautiful.

established, bears as high as 1 8 to 20 flowers during the 
season. (Color illustration, page O).

Not unlike the Regal Lily in general appearance. The 
slender stem is covered with the same grassy foliage of 
the Regal Lily. The substantial blooms are trumpet¬ 
like; in fact, they are long, lovely white flowers, with a 
beautiful pale emerald-green throat which gives the 
flower a distinct and delicate appearance. They com¬ 
mence blooming in early August and flower until stopped 
by frost. Bulbs when established will produce 3 to 4 
spikes each with 4 or 5 blooms. It is a most liberal 
flowering Lily, to all of which may be added that they 
are among the easiest grown. September flowering.
