Hardy Lilies 
All gardens need a few of these stately 
beauties, the blooming season of which 
may be extended from June to September 
if the proper varieties are planted. Large 
plantings of L. candidum, L. tigrinum, and 
the Speciosum varieties are recommended, 
and also the handsome, early-blooming 
L. elegans and L. superbum. They thrive 
in any well-drained garden soil, but do best 
in the hardy border or among shrubbery. 
Plant bulbs twice their depth and when 
frost sets in, cover with 4 to 6 inches of 
leaves or litter, to be removed in spring.
