LILIES FOR GARDEN AND GREENHOUSE 
L. Bellingham Hybrids. This fine race of lilies was produced through the efforts 
of the late Dr. David Griffiths at the Experiment Station of the United States 
Department of Agriculture in Bellingham, Washington. Descriptions of the 
named varieties Douglas Ingram, Kulshan, Sacajawea, Shuksan and Star of 
Oregon will be found in alphabetical order in this list. In addition to these, 
we have on hand a stock of selected seedlings raised from seed of these 
named types which we are offering for the first time this season. Consider¬ 
able variation will, of course, be found in these plants, the flowers ranging 
in color from light orange yellow to the rich orange red of L. Pardalinum 
(one of the parent plants). All of these seedlings carry reflexed flowers on 
stems ranging from 3 to 6 feet tall and the foliage is similar to that of the 
named varieties. They form an excellent strain of lilies of easy garden cul¬ 
ture. Plant in partial shade from 5 to 6 inches deep. June to July flowering. 
Flowering size bulbs, 50c each, $5.00 per dozen. October-December delivery. 
L. Bolanderi (Oregon and California). A rare native species growing from 1 to 3 
feet tall which carries, on slender stems, bell-shaped flowers varying from 
a brick red to a rich wine red. Best in partial shade and a well drained soil 
abundant in leaf mold. Bulbs of this lily are never large. Blooming period, 
July. Plant 5-6 inches deep. Flowering size bulbs, 75c each, $7.50 dozen.

other lilies of its type and the entire plant takes on an appearance of classic 
gracefulness. The large trumpets are marble white, stained purple on the 
exterior. The anthers are chocolate brown. Fragrant. Plant in sun or par¬ 
tial shade at least 8 inches deep. Be certain of good drainage. Height 3 to
