SIZE AND NATURE 
OF LILY BULBS 
There exists a great vari¬ 
ation in the sizes of Lily 
bulbs. 
Some varieties produce 
very large bulbs while oth¬ 
ers only small ones. 
Some bulbs are of the 
Rhizomatous type (a tu¬ 
berous root with 2 or 3 
small bulbs attached). 
DELIVERY AND 
PLANTING TIMES 
When ordering, please 
note the delivery and plant¬ 
ing time which is given 
with the description of 
each variety. 
Lily bulbs come from 
various parts of the world, 
and will be forwarded as 
soon as received by us. 
Use sand liberally when 
planting under, around, 
and over the bulbs. 
Granulated Peat Moss is 
a good summer and winter 
mulch. 
Bulbs which become af¬ 
fected with mosaic disease 
should be destroyed.
