LILY OF THE VALLEY 
(Ready in November) 
For open-ground planting we offer large clumps, each containing many flowering 
crowns. These may be set from 6 inches to a foot apart and covered 3 inches, lhey 
succeed best in ground which is rather moist and partially shaded. 
For forcing, the pips are to be preferred, being grown under conditions tending 
to promote vigorous and early blooming. Twelve to eighteen pips may be planted 
in a 6-inch pot, with ail the fibrous roots carefully preserved, and keeping the crowns 
above the soil. Place them in a temperature of about SO degrees, cover the crowns 
with loose moss, and keep them constantly moist with tepid water.
