LILIES FOR GARDEN AND GREENHOUSE 
L. DALHANSONII 
L. Dalhansonii (Hybrid). An outstanding lily which was originally flowered in 
1890 from a cross of L. Martagon Daimaticum x L. Hansonii. Unlike some 
hybrid lilies this plant is very vigorous and of easy garden culture. The 
thick petaled recurved flowers are similar in form to L. Hansonii but the 
color is a deep mahogany red; an exceptional color among lilies. Foliage is 
similar to L. Hansonii. Plant 5 to 6 inches deep in partial shade and with 
sharp drainage. Height 4 to 5 feet. June flowering. Strong bulbs, $4.00 each. 
October delivery. 
L. Dauricum (Northeast Asia). One of the earliest flowering of the Asiatic lilies. 
The true type is rather rare, forms of L. Umbellatum being often substituted. 
The flowers are upright as in L. Croceum and vary from light orange to deep 
orange, flushed and spotted red. The strain of L. Dauricum which we are 
now offering is much improved over older types, the flowers being at least 
one-third larger and of better coloring. Plant 5 inches deep in a sunny 
position with good drainage. Height 1 V 2 to 2 feet. Blooming period, late 
May and June. Strong bulbs, 30c each. $3.00 dozen, $22.00 per 100. October- 
December delivery. 
L. Dauricum var. Batemanniae. A fine rich apricot colored lily with upright 
unspotted flowers. Undoubtedly an improved form of L. Dauricum Venu.,- 
trum. Plant 6 inches deep in semi-shade and a rich, light soil. Height, 3 feet. 
Blooming period, late July to early August. Selected bulbs, 30c each, $3.00 
dozen, $22.00 per 100.
