PARDALINUM GIGANTEUM (Sunset Lily) A variety with a 
more vigorous constitution and even more brilliantly colored 
flowers. The prevailing color is rich vermillion passing to or- 
ange-red at the tips of the petals with a deep golden throat, 
thickly spotted with purple black spots. It requires no special 
culture. Each 35c Dozen $3.50 Hundred $26.00 
PARDALINUM PALLIDIFOLIUM The foliage is pale green and 
broad, the flowers pale red and more tinged with yellow at the

bulbs, only, are available. Each 60c 
PRESTON HYBRIDS, Stenographer Series. 
We list a group of splendid hybrids by Miss Isabelle Preston of 
the Dominion Experimental Farm at Ottawa, Canada. Miss 
Preston has worked with lilies for years and we are indebted 
to her for many fine garden plants. 
EDNA KEAN grows to three feet with dark green crowded 
foliage. Flowers face outwards with partly reflexed seg- 
ments. Color between scarlet darker than Brenda Watts 
and Grace Marshall. A few medium-sized bay spots. Stock 
limited, American grown. Each $3.00 
BRENDA WATTS grows to five feet at least with 30 or more 
flowers to a stem, is most vigorous and the most rapid 
propagator of the group. The leaves are crowded, long and 
narrow. Flowers face outward with partly reflexed petals. 
Color is grenadine red with dark brown spots towards the 
center of the flower. In the garden it is a bold, brilliant 
and striking plant. Stock limited. American grown bulbs. 
Each $3.00 
GRACE MARSHALL A fine hybrid with deep red, outward- 
facing, reflexed flowers. The plant grows from 4 to 5 feet, 
is wiry and erect and will carry up to thirty blossoms. 
Like all of Miss Preston’s hybrids this is a “good doer”. 
Plant 6 to 8 inches deep in sun or part shade and in a well 
prepared soil. Each $5.00 
LILLIAN CUMMINGS Another fine grenadine red hybrid. An 
extremely vigorous lily and an asset to any collection. 
Each $5.00 
Note: Other hybrids by Miss Preston are Coronation, Davmottiae, Da- 
vidi Oriole and Princeps, var. G. C. Creelman. These are listed in other sections 
of this catalogue. 
UMBELLATUM (European garden hybrids) The so-called Flame, 
Candlestick or Torch Lily of our gardens. They are distin- 
guished from L. Dauricum and Elegans by stature and habit 
of growth. All bear umbels of upright, cup-shaped flowers in 
brilliant colors and nothing can compare with them when plant- 
ed in groups in the border. They are of easiest culture, require 
no care and establish well, quickly forming good sized clumps. 
We list a group of distinct color and habit. 
Note: The German invasion of the Netherlands brought an abrupt ces- 
sation to imports of this group. English stocks are exhausted and there will, in 
all likelihood, be a distinct shortage this year. Our stocks are limited.
