L. Princeps G. C. Creelman x Centifolium Hybrids. A grand new strain of trum- 
pet lilies for which we are indebted to Miss Beatrice L. Palmer of Cobble 
Hill, B. C., Canada. These remarkably robust lilies produce immense heads 
of flowers, white with lemon yellow throat suffused externally as in the 
parent plants. Flowering period, late July. Culture same as L. Princeps 
G. C. Creelman. Large Select Bulbs $2.50 each, $25.00 dozen. October- 
December delivery. 
L. Princeps Shelburne Hybrid. This hybrid lily is of the same parentage as 
G. C. Creelman. It is a very attractive plant of tall, slender growth bloom- 
ing later than L. Regale and with flowers of the L. Regale-L. Sargentiae type. 
Sometimes produces bulbils in the leaf axils. Same culture as Princeps 
G. C. Creelman. Height 5 to 6 feet. Strong flowering bulbs, $1.00 each, 
$10.00 dozen. October-December delivery. 

L. RUBELLUM 
L. Pyrenaicum (Pyrenees). Often referred to as the yellow Turk’s Cap, this lily 
is one of the earliest to flower. The flowers, of Martagon type, are yellow 
spotted black and are carried on stems which will reach four feet when well 
established. Seems best in partial shade and needs a season to establish 
itself. Plant 5 inches deep. May-June flowering. Strong bulbs, 75¢ each, 
$7.50 dozen. September-November delivery. 
L. Regale (Tibet). Undoubtedly the most popular lily in America today and well 
deserving of its popularity. A hardy and vigorous plant which does well in 
practically any situation or soil condition. The large white flowers are 
extremely fragrant and are suffused with a wine color without and with a 
canary yellow throat. Easily grown in pots for early spring bloom under 
greenhouse conditions and an excellent cut flower or garden subject. In 
climates subject to late frosts, the young growth should be protected with 
branches or a loose straw mulch. Plant 8 inches deep. June-July flowering. 
Flowering bulbs, 15¢ each, $1.50 dozen, $11.00 per 100. Medium bulbs, 
25c each, $2.50 dozen, $18.00 per 100. Large bulbs, 40c each, $4.00 dozen, 
$30.00 per 100. Mammoth bulbs, 75¢ each, $7.50 dozen, $56.00 per 100.
