These beautiful and fragrant golden lilies 
are of easiest culture, succeeding in almost 
any garden soil. They are remarkably free 
from the enemies that so unfortunately 
beset so many of our garden favorites. By 
a selection from the following list, these 
beautiful lilies can be had in flower from 
May to August. The leaf growth starts 
very early in the spring, adding a pleasing 
light green to the border where they are 
used. This growth quickly shoots up into 
a graceful clump of flowing rich green 
foliage, which lends its attraction to the 
garden border. Springing from this growth 
graceful flower spikes appear, liberally sup¬ 
plied with flowers and buds for several 
weeks. The color is from soft lemon to 
richest apricot yellow and deep orange, 
varying with the variety. Fragrance delight¬ 
ful. No other one class of strictly hardy 
garden lilies can be depended on to do 
more towards delightful permanent garden 
effects. Plant these lilies in the early fall 
and an abundance of flowers will follow the 
following blooming season.
