CLIMBING 
LILY 
The Climbing Glory Lily (Glori¬ 
osa Rothschildiana) is an unusual 
plant that has been available in 
such smail quantities that we 
could not offer it until recent 
years. The plant is of a twining 
nature and wiil climb on a low 
trellis to a height of 4 to 6 feet. 
The individual flowers measure 
from 3 to 4 Inches across and are 
similar in shape to tlie well known 
Japanese Lilies, with 3 to 6 blo.s- 
soms at one time. The color is 
deep red striped with yellow. It 
may be used for either garden or 
pot culture. 
The Glory Lily blooms twice 
each year, and flowers from 7 to 
10 weeks after planting. As it is 
not hardy in the North, take it in¬ 
doors for a second crop of bloom 
in the winter. The flowers keep 
well when cut, lasting 10 days in 
water. Blooming size roots, 40c

Other Hardy Lilies 
CONCOLOR or STAR LILY. We 
are enthusiastic about this lily for 
several good reasons. The color is a 
bright crimson-scarlet, brighter than 
anything you have ever before wit¬ 
nessed in a lily. It is unique because 
the flowers grow upright and you can 
look down into them. It is hardy, 
dependable, and as permanent as a 
lily can be. A graceful, handsome 
lily of easy cultivation, excellent for 
pots or open ground, grows 18 to 24 
inches high and blooms in June and 
July. 25c each; 3 for 60c; 12 for 
$2.00, postpaid. 
CORAL LILY (Tenuifolium). A 
most attractive Lily for rocl? gardens 
or in the foreground of the herbaceous 
border, attaining a height of 18 inches 
to 2 feet. Bears large heads of pen¬ 
dulous, waxen, deep scarlet flowers 
on wiry stems. This Lily attracts an 
unusual amount of attention for its 
daintiness and hriiliancy. Probably 
the brightest in color of all Lilies.
