Lilium Speciosum Rubrum (Magnificum) planted on the dates mentioned oppo¬ 
site will take six to eight weeks longer to flower than Lilium Giganteum. 
Lilium Rubrum "Magnificum" should be planted June 15th to July 1st to 
flower for Christmas. 
The schedule mentioned opposite indicates, however, approximate flowering 
dates. If extremely warm weather exists meantime they may flower a month 
earlier. It largely depends on weather conditions.—A. B. C. 
Lilium's Giganteum and Rubrum (Magnificum) from cold storage are available 
almost the entire year.
