LILIES FOR GARDEN AND GREENHOUSE 
L. Ochraceum (Upper Burma). An extremely scarce lily which makes a striking 
plant. The flowers are large bell-shaped of a greenish yellow color 
heavily blotched and spotted on the inside with dark purple. Has an un¬ 
usual spicy fragrance. Although probably not hardy under extreme condi¬ 
tions, this lily has proven satisfactory under outdoor culture in this climate. 
Also fine for a ground bed in a cool greenhouse and can be successfully 
grown in large pots. The usual height is 2 to 4 feet, although we have 
specimens this year over 6 feet high. For outdoor culture, plant in a partially 
shaded sheltered position 6 to 8 inches deep. Flowering period, August to 
September. Large bulbs, $2.00 each, $20.00 dozen. November-December 
delivery.

L. PARDALINUM GIGANTEUM 
L. Pardalinum (Oregon and California). One of the most easily grown of Ameri¬ 
can lilies and likewise one of the hardiest. A beautiful plant sending up 
stems from 4 to 7 feet high with narrow leaves arranged in whorls. The 
flowers are much recurved of the Martagon type and are colored deep 
orange shading to crimson at the tips of the petals. Established plants will 
carry 30 flowers. Not particular as to situation but at its best in partial 
shade. Prefers a moist soil during the summer but with good drainage. 
Plant 4 to 5 inches deep. Flowering period, July. Strong single crown bulbs, 
25c each, $2.50 dozen, $18.00 per 100. Extra large double crown bulbs, 
35c each. $3.50 dozen, $26.00 per 100. October-November delivery. 
L. Pardalinum var. angustifolium. In this variety the foliage is more narrow 
than in the type and more abundant. A very vigorous and free flowering 
form. Culture same as above. Single crown bulbs, 40c each, $4.00 dozen.
