MOSAIC FREE LILIUMS 
But for the virus disease known as Mosaic lily 
culture would make more rapid progress in the 
United States. This disease is not peculiar to this 
country but is in every country where lilies are either 
cultivated or found in the wild. We offer this year a 
number of varieties which have been examined by 
experts and have passed the most rigid tests for 
traces of Mosaic, these are all strong flowering bulbs. 
The following amongst other excellent varieties 
are offered this season—Regale, Regale Hybrids, 
Crows Hybrids, Princeps, Shelburne Hybrid, Sulphur- 
Gale Hybrids, Creelmanni, Centifolium, Pride of 
Charlotte, Backhouse Hybrids, Auratum Platyphyl- 
lum, Longiflorum Giganteum. 
Prices of these varieties will be found in the 
alphabetical list in this catalogue. 
Additional to the lilies listed here we have limited 
numbers of some other varieties the names and prices 
of which will be forwarded on application. 
LILIUM SEEDS 
A great majority of Liliums come quite readily 
from seeds. Some like regale and all its hybrids, 
Willmottiae, Davidi, Formosanum, Henryi, tenui- 
folium, umbellatum, candidum Salonikae var., ama- 
bile concolor, longiflorum and elegans will usually 
germinate within a month. On the other hand aura- 
tum, speciosum, martagon, Marhan, the Backhouse 
hybrids, giganteum Himalaicum, and all North 
American varieties are very slow some requiring as 
much as 12 months to germinate, some of these will 
make a small bulb but no leaves the first season. 
Sowing may be done under glass, in the home in 
winter, or in cold frames, or the open about May 1. 
Rather late fall before sharp frosts is another good 
time to sow seeds outdoors or in a frame. Started 
early, Formosanum will flower the first season, a 
number of others will bloom the second season.
