HARDY LILIES 
AUTUMN 
L ILIES are considered by many to be the 
most beautiful and ornamental of cul¬ 
tivated plants. Their stately habit and vari¬ 
ously colored flowers, often very fragrant, 
make them almost indispensable for the hardy 
flower garden, as well as for growing in the 
greenhouse. Many of the native species may 
be effectively naturalized and practically all 
are valuable for use in the mixed perennial 
border. Most of them will grow very well in 
pots, and by using several varieties, a suc¬ 
cession of bloom may be had over a long period. 
It should be remembered that Lilies are pri¬ 
marily wild plants and they do not lend them¬ 
selves to formal garden bedding schemes. 
They are at their best in the open garden 
when grown with a protective ground cover 
planting or when located in shade for at least 
a portion of the day. They will do well in 
mixed perennial plantings, but be sure that 
the bulbs are not crowded by the roots of 
other plants.
