The foregoing is by no means a complete list of 
Liliums, many are unsuitable for spring plantings 
including all of our North American varieties in 
addition to some of the Asiatic and virtually all 
European varieties. A complete list of over 100 
varieties will be found in our autumn bulb catalogue 
published in late July. 
We cordially invite all interested in these bul¬ 
bous aristocrats to come and look over our beds 
the coming season, a few blooms open in late May, 
during June, and July numerous varieties will be 
found flowering, others extend the season through 
August and September until late October. We will 
have a good many varieties in pots blooming ahead 
of the outside dates. 
We ship Liliums to as distant points as New 
Zealand and South Africa, and make many ship¬ 
ments to Great Britain, France, Canada, and other 
countries. 
LILIUM SEEDS 
A great majority of Liliums come quite readily 
from seeds. Some like regale and all its hybrids, 
Pride of Charlotte, Willmottiae, Davidi, Formosa- 
num, Henryi, tenuifolium, umbellatum, candidum 
Salonica var., amabile, coneolor, longiflorium, and 
elegans will usually germinate within a month, some¬ 
times in half that time. On the other hand auratum, 
speciosum, martagon, Marhan, the Backhouse hy¬ 
brids, giganteum Himalaicum, and all North Ameri¬ 
can varieties are very slow some requiring as much 
as 12 months to germinate, some of these will make 
a small bulb but no leaves the first season. 
Sowing may be done under glass, in the home in 
winter, in cold frames, or the open about May 1. 
Rather late fall before sharp frosts is another good 
time to sow seeds outdoors or in a frame. Started 
early, Formosanum will flower the first season, a 
number of others will bloom the second season.
