LILIES FOR GARDEN AND GREENHOUSE 



L. Occidentale (Oregon and California). A rare native lily of the west coast 
which is not difficult to establish under garden conditions. The plant carries 
small bell-shaped flowers which are orange red with a maroon spotted 
throat. The petals are much recurved. Plant in soil which is lime free and 
to which peat, or leaf mold, have been added. As with most native lilies, 
partial shade suits it best. Height 2 to 4 feet. Plant 4-5 inches deep. Flower- 
ing period, July. Flowering bulbs, 50c each, $5.00 dezen. October-November 
delivery. 

L. OCHRACEUM 
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 over 6 feet high. For outdoor culture, plant in a partially shaded 
sheltered position 6 to 8 inches deep. Flowering period, August to Septem- 
ber. Large bulbs, $2.00 each, $20.00 dozen. November-December delivery.
