IN YOUR GARDEN 
NEXT SPRING... 

— Don’t Miss the Gll- Summer Glory of Lilies 
Few flowers bring your garden the unusual and exotic beauty of Lilies, the romance of the far corners of the 
earth in which many of them were discovered. They have come from Europe, Asia, Africa and the wild crannies 
of America to delight you with their different grace and loveliness, their uncommon charm and colors that offer 
you the pleasure of ‘’pointing with pride.’’ Growing some of the stranger varieties gives you enjoyment and satis- 
faction like that of collecting rare jades and porcelains. 

Lilies are beginning to take their rightful place in American gardens, large and small, not only for their beauty 
but because of their challenge to the gardener’s originality and skill. As a group they are not the easiest flowers to 
grow; but in the past 20 years or so it has been demonstrated that they are not particularly difficult either—just 
enough so to stimulate gardening interest. And they pay you well in distinctive results, a steady parade of chang- 
ing bloom from early June to late September.

Lovely Lilies Easily Grown 
Among those easily cultivated, certainly you want the fragrant whiteness of Madonna Lilies (Lilium Candi- 
dum). We import most of them from Northern France, but those for late planting come from Holland. In combin- 
ation with blue Delphinium they make a gorgeous late spring showing. The Nankeen Lily (Lilium Testaceum) 
gives you the brilliance of warm apricot petals against bright orange anthers, a perfect companion for light-toned 
Delphiniums or snowy Madonnas. Or there’s the Sunset Lily that soars as high as your head and bursts in a dozen 
or more flowers of a radiant sunset-red that pales to yellow sprinkled with brown dots at the base. Or the mag- 
nificent Regal Lily, gold-throated, with white translucent petals that are brown streaked on the outside; the new 
Shuksan Hybrid Lily, head high with twenty or more gorgeous buff-yellow blooms spotted brown which last ten 
days or more when cut. Don’t miss the enjoyment and adventure of them and many others.
