Lilies 
The Lily is a favorite flower 
everywhere. Lilium candidum 
does best when planted in Au¬ 
gust or September. This va¬ 
riety is valuable for forcing, 
and is used extensively for this 
purpose. The method is to 
plant the bulbs in 6-inch pots, 
barely covering them with soil, 
then plunge them in the gar¬ 
den in a warm, sheltered place, 
and let them remain there un¬ 
til the pots are well filled with 
roots, after which they may be 
removed to the house or con¬ 
servatory, where they will 
flower in eight or ten weeks. 
In forcing L. Harrisii or L. 
longiflorum. plant them in 6- 
inch pots half filled with rich 
soil, sink the bulbs, leaving 
just the tips exposed. After 
the bulb has thrown its stem 
above the top of the pot, fill the pot with rich soil. 
Lilium candidum (St. Joseph, or Annunciation Lily). This is the old-fashioned 
garden inly, ihe many snow-white flowers borne on a stem 3 to 4 feet high make 
this Lily most effective. Very 
large bulbs, ready for deliv¬ 
ery in September. Each 15c., 
doz. $1.50, 100 $8.00. 
LILY OF THE VALLEY 
Lilium Harrisii. The Ber¬ 
muda Easter Lily is per¬ 
haps the finest and most 
popular of Winter-bloom¬ 
ing plants. The large, 
handsome, pure white 
trumpet-shaped flowers are 
very sweet-scented and of 
great substance, and last a 
long time after cutting. 
Its stately and graceful 
habit renders it a perfect 
pot plant for table or Win¬ 
ter decoration.
