LILIES 
Lilies are of the easiest culture, and the 
varieties listed below are all perfectly hardy. 
After once being planted, they will increase in 
beauty and size with each succeeding year. 
Lilies do best in a well-drained sandy soil, 
which should be fairly rich, and the plants 
should be given plenty of water during peri¬ 
ods of drought. In order to grow Lilies to 
large size, the bulbs should be planted deeply. 
Auratum (Gold-banded Japan Lily). Undoubt¬ 
edly one of the finest. Its large, graceful, 
fragrant flowers are composed of six petals 
of a delicate ivory-white color, thickly 
studded with chocolate-crimson spots, and 
striped through the center a golden-yellow. 
3 to 5 feet. July, September. Extra large- 
flowering bulbs, each 50c; doz., $5; 100, $35. 
Elegans. Very hardy, dwarf Lilies thriving in 
any garden and producing large, erect flow¬ 
ers of various shades of yellow, orange and 
red. Bloom in June and July and all vari¬ 
eties grow from one and a half to two feet. 
Each 20c; doz., $2.00.

50c; dozen, $5.00; 100, $50.00.
