TIGRINUM Splendens —This variety of lily has been raised by the Chinese and 
Japanese as an article of food for over a thousand years. Doesn’t that make 
you almost shudder when you think of the place it occupies in our gardens 
during August? It is a wonderful specimen lily, blooming at a time when we 
need its bright salmon-red and orange to tone up and cheer up the garden in 
late August, after the other lilies are gone and the Speciosums are not yet in 
bloom. If you can place this in front of green foliage, or in some corner by 
itself, and leave it grow for a number of years, it will well reward you. Height 
4-6 ft. Plant 7-8 in. deep, sun or partial shade, well drained soil.

WILLMOTTIAE —The many orange-yellow recurving blossoms of this lily are 
borne on a very graceful stem with long deep green foliage, and the little 
black dots scattered over its face enhance the yellow-orange coloring, so it 
seems to fairly breathe of life. You may have to stake these stems in the 
garden, if you prefer them to stand up stiff, but they lend themselves beauti¬ 
fully to bouquets. Try them with delphinium in a brass bowl. Height 2 to 4 ft. 
July-Aug. Plant 6 inches deep. (Illustrated page 17).

MISCELLANEOUS NATIVES 
Of California and Oregon 
The response I received last year for these delightful little natives has 
encouraged me to try again. With few exceptions, my customers seemed to 
prefer mixed colors of the different varieties (Camassia an exception), so I’m 
offering them accordingly, this year. Whether these western natives will make 
themselves at home in your garden or not, I cannot say—you will just have to 
try them, but I hope they will, as their colorings are delightful. 
CALOCHORTUS (Kal-o-kort'-us)—Five varieties in white, yellow, lilac and 
lavender tone. 30 bulbs, $1.65; 60 bulbs, $2.95. 
ERYTHRONIUM (Er-i-throh'-ni-um)—Dog’s Tooth Violet. Eight varieties in 
colorings of white, cream, yellow, pink, light purple, rose, and lavender. 
48 bulbs, $3.25; 96 bulbs, $6.10. 
FRITILLARIA (Frit-ill-ar'-ia)—Very fascinating—lovely in woodland or bor¬ 
der. Five varieties of nodding bell flowers of green, brown, gold, orange 
scarlet, and rose. 30 bulbs, $3.00; 60 bulbs, $5.50. 
CAMASSIA (Ka -mass'-si-a)—Hardy without protection. Splendid for open 
moist woods or along streams as well as in your garden. Grows 2 to 3 feet. 
Plant these in abundance. The combination of the three varieties makes a 
very showy display. You will be delighted with them.
