TENUIFOLIUM —“Gayest of little lilies.” Bright cheery red blossoms, bring¬ 
ing into our gardens joy and gladness in May or early June. I am offering 
this again this year at a price to enable you to grow them in quantities. Height 
] to 2 ft. Plant 3 to 4 in. deep. I grow excellent bulbs—the large bulbs are the 
same age of the smaller bulbs—simply are larger and sturdier.

TENUIFOLIUM GOLDEN GLEAM —This lily resembles the Tenuifolium in 
everything except the color of its blossoms, and the blossom is just what the 
name implies, a GLEAM OF GOLD. Same height, same blossoming date, 
same planting depth. A mixture of the two colors would make a bright spot 
in your garden. I can offer these to you in lots of 100 this year.

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. Each 6

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.

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.
