LILIES FOR GARDEN AND GREENHOUSE 



L. SCOTTIAE 
L. Shuksan (Hybrid). This lily is another of the hybrids raised at Bellingham by 
the late Dr. David Griffiths. As in the case of L. Kulshan, the name is 
derived from one of the mountain peaks near the city of its origin. The 
flowers are of the Martagon type colored cadmium, faintly flushed red over 
the end of the petals and dotted black. This lily we consider the best of the 
Griffiths’ hybrids. A vigorous and handsome plant. Plant 6 to 8 inches 
deep in a porous soil with good drainage and in partial shade. Height 4 
to 5 feet. July flowering. Flowering bulbs, $1.00 each, $10.00 dozen. Large 
bulbs, $1.50 each, $15.00 dozen. October-November delivery. 
L. Skinner’s Orange (Hybrid). A second generation seedling of an L. Philadel- 
phicum x L. Dauricum cross, this lily produces erect, broad petaled flowers 
of a bright orange deepening slightly at the tips and spotted brown. 
Height 2 feet. June flowering. Plant in sun or part shade 4 to 5 inches 
deep. Selected bulbs, 75c each, $7.50 dozen. 
L. Speciosum (Japan). One of the most popular of all lily species and rightly so. 
These hardy plants bear up to 20 recurved, fragrant flowers on stems from 
4 to 6 feet tall. The foliage is extremely attractive and graceful. All of the 
varieties should be planted deeply, from 9 to 10 inches, and the color is 
best in partial shade. Good drainage is essential. August and September 
flowering. We offer several varieties of this fine lily. November-January 
delivery. 
L. Speciosum Album (Kraetzeri). A beautiful white form with green stripe down 
the center of each petal. Not quite as tall as Rubrum. Flowering bulbs, 
50c each, $5.00 dozen, $38.00 per 100. Selected large bulbs, 75¢ each, 
$7.50 dozen.
