LILIES 
Stateliest and most aristocratic of all garden plants. Being hardy, the list of 
Lilies ordinarily runs with the other perennials ; but being supplied as bulbs, 
they might be overlooked if not offered nearby other spring bulbs—such as 
Dahlias, Gladioli, etc. No garden could be complete without some representa¬ 
tion from this noble family. 
AUBATUM (Gold -Banded Japan Lily). This variety has ever been a great fa¬ 
vorite. The flower heads are large, with broad petals gracefully recurved.
