LILY-OF-THE-VALLEY PIPS 
Re-selected Exhibition German Pips 
The reputation of A. B. C. Supreme Quality Lily-of-the-Valley is so well 
established in the trade that little can be added by any commendation 
on our part. 
Beside their cut-flower worth, Lily-of-the-Valley have an added sales value 
in that Pips can be sold profitably for planting in various receptacles in 
the home. They can easily be bloomed in four weeks, in moss, sand or soil. 
A great deal of interest can be created by displaying about 12 growing 
Pips in a fancy bowl in some prominent spot in your store. The ease with 
which they can be grown will interest most of your customers in buying 
them. If merchandised properly, you will find them an extremely profit¬ 
able item.

LILIUM CANDIDUM (Madonna Lily) 
Imported French Grown — September Delivery 
Note! Lilium Candidum is nowadays primarily planted outdoors, bulbs 
being set soon after their arrival from France. (Cover them not more than 
2 inches.) In days gone by, Lilium Candidum was largely cultured under 
glass, although this plan is still followed to some extent. However, they 
must be grown cool, never more than 55 degrees at night. Lilium Candidum 
and Delphinium Belladonna bloom at the same period outdoors and pro¬ 
vide a most "happy combination."

LILIUM TENUIFOLIUM 
(So-called "Miniature Lilium Rubrum") 
For under-glass culture, they can be planted in a Darwin Tulip bulb pan, 
set 4 inches deep and 3 inches apart, since they are a stem rooting type. 
They come into bloom in approximately 14 weeks. Also, owing to their 
slender stems and fine, narrow foliage, Lilium Tenuifolium can be planted 
between Carnations right in the benches. Color, brilliant scarlet. Flowers 
outdoors in June, perfectly hardy.

open. Succeeds well under greenhouse culture.
