LILIES, True (Lilium Species). Per. |il'-i-um. 
Sow in pots, flats, or ground-beds, in a lath- 
house, a Shaded greenhouse, or a lath-shaded 
cold-frame, using plenty of sand and leaf- 
mold in the soil. Top growth seldom appears 
until roots have become well developed. The 
quicker-germinating species, marked with an 
asterisk (*) in the list below, should be sown 
from March to June, about 4-inch deep (top 
growth appears in 3 to 8 weeks). The slower 
sorts require a period of warmth followed hy 
a period of cold before top growth will ap- 
pear, and are thus best sown from July to 
September for germination the following 
spring. Cover about %-inch. After germina- 
tion a light mulch of peat moss will assist 
in keeping the soil surface evenly moist. 
Most lilies will thrive in partial shade ina 
lime-free soil enriched with leaf-mold, kept 
moist but with really good drainage.
