PALE PINK TO PURPLE LILIES 
Several of these were difficult to classify, notably L. Testaceum 
which is a unique color. 
CERNUUM (Korea) This is not a commonly planted variety be- 
cause bulbs are not very easily available. The Cernuum is a 
delicate and lovely plant, that grows from 1% to 2 feet tall and 
bears from 4 to 6 recurved blossoms per stem. The flowers 
range in color from pale pink to lilac and are spotted with deep 
purple. It is a successful garden variety and blossoms just 
after the Tenuifoliums. Plant 4 to 5 inches deep. 
Each 25c Dozen $2.50 
JAPONICUM An exquisite trumpet lily, one of the few pink lilies 
of our gardens. The choice blooms, usually 2 to 5 in number, 
are in shades of pink that range from a pale apple-blossom to 
a deep rose. Distinctly a capricious plant but so lovely that it’s 
well worth trying. The bulbs we offer will be shipped with their 
roots intact and should be of easier cultivation than most. 
Plant 5 inches. 
Collected wild bulbs from Japan. 
Each 35¢ Dozen $3.50 
JAPONICUM PLATYPHYLLUM So far as we know this form has 
not been previously offered here and we expect it to be a much 
more satisfactory plant for the average garden than is the true 
Japonicum. It is a hardier plant with broader leaves, greater 
vigor and a tendency to deeper tones of pink in the trumpets. 
The bulbs listed were collected in the mountains of northern 
Japan. 
Wild Stock Bulbs. Each 45c Dozen $4.50 
JAPONICUM RUBRUM MAGNIFICUM A selected form of L. Ja- 
ponicum with large deep colored flowers. An excellent lily and 
more vigorous than the type. Collected wild stock bulbs. Stock 
limited. Each 85c 
LANKONGENSE Another variety new to the United States though 
it has been most successful in England. It is a member of the 
family that includes the lovely L. Duchartrei, Wardii and Tali- 
ense. Botanically it is not too different from any of the three 
though for garden purposes it is quite distinct. This plant has 
large rose colored flowers profusely spotted a darker shade and 
the blooms grow in a raceme rather than on a long spike. It 
blooms in early July and stands about 2 feet high. Best grown 
in partial shade in a fairly moist situation with good drainage. 
Plant 3 to 4 inches deep. Each $1.00 Dozen $10.00 
MARTAGON (Europe) A somewhat variable Turk’s Cap Lily rang- 
ing in color from a soft dull lavender with a pink sheen to dull 
violet. The individual blooms are small but the plants form a 
good clump. If you care for the color this is one of the better 
liies to grow as it does well and is by no means difficult. An 
old European garden favorite. Fall delivery only. 
Each 50c Dozen $5.00
