L. SPECIOSUM RUBRUM 
L. Star of Oregon (Hybrid). Another of the L. Humboldtii x L. Pardalinum hybrids 
raised by the Bellingham bulb station. The plants are taller than L. Shuksan, 
attaining a height of 6 to 7 feet and carrying up to 20 reflexed cadmium 
orange flowers thickly spotted black. Plant 6 to 8 inches deep in partial 
shade in a well drained location. Flowering period, July. Strong bulbs, 
$1.50 each, $15.00 dozen. October-November delivery. 
L. Sulphur-Gale Hybrids (Hybrid). A hybrid lily resultina from the crossing of 
L. Sulphureum and L. Regale which flowered first in Europe in 1916. As 
with many hybrids, this plant is somewhat variable but the flowers are 
similar in type to L. Regale, taking on a more creamy tint. This hybrid 
blooms later than Regale and is useful in extending the flowering period 
of that fine lily. Plant 8 to 10 inches deep in full sun or partial shade. 
Height 4 to 5 feet. Flowering period, July. Flowering size bulbs, 40¢ each, 
$4.00 dozen. 
L. Superbum (Eastern United States). This lily is commonly known as the 
American Turks Cap or Swamp Lily and is easily one of the finest of our 
native plants. The growth is somewhat similar to L. Pardalinum, the flowers 
being bright orange suffused yellow and spotted brown. The leaves are 
arranged in whorls on stems which attain a height up to 8 feet, although 
the average growth is 5 to 6 feet. This lily is easily established if it is 
provided with a moist lime free soil and partial shade. Good drainage 
is likewise essential. Plant 5 inches deep. Blooming period, July to August. 
First size bulbs, 35¢ each, $3.50 dozen, $26.00 per 100. October-November
