TESTACEUM (Nankeen) This is an outstanding lily of soft apricot or yel¬ 
low buff, whose demand far exceeds the supply. In some localities it de¬ 
mands extra care to grow it, but where one is successful, undisturbed clumps 
will give you a good bloom for years. It is the only lily of its color and truly 
worth the price. This lily puts forth a fall growth (under the ground) and 
should not be planted late. We ship in late August, and they should be 
planted at once, so please place your orders EARLY. Height 2 to 5 ft. Blooms 
June-July. Don’t plant too deep—3 to 4 inches from base to top of soil. Very 
limited supply. Orders taken subject to crop. This lily is growing very 
scarce.

TIGRINUM flore pleno —This is the only double lily I have. The word “lily” 
seems to associate itself in our minds with a single blossom, and we some¬ 
times resent the thought of a double lily, but I think you will find this 
double lily an addition to your garden, not only because it is an attractive 
lily in itself, but it will prolong the “reign of the Tigers” after most of the 
other lilies are gone. It grows 3 to 5 ft. Blooms Aug.-Sept. Flore pleno 
does not make as large a bulb as Splendens, so plant 5 to 6 inches deep.

THE UMBELLATUM GROUP —This group of lilies is extremely showy and 
has a wide range of color. In 1931 the Royal Horticultural Society conferred 
the Award of Merit on this group. They are not only vigorous, hardy and 
long lived, but are quite decorative and can be used at the front of mixed or 
shrub borders, or as a specimen where'a good showy lily is needed. They do 
well in good garden soil, but better with leaf mold and very well decayed 
manure down where the roots can get it, if the drainage is good—in a sunny 
location. The flower which is upright umbel shaped in the varieties which 
I’m offering you will range from early June to late July. Eventually these 
bulbs will send forth many stalks, and grow from 18 to 30 inches high. Plant 
them 4 to 6 inches deep. (See front cover).
