Lilium Maxwell 
Other (New Lilies 
(Continued) 
Dalhansoni (Hybrid) Each $3.50, Doz. $35.00 
A remarkably fine hybrid resulting from a cross between Lilium Marta- 
gon Dalmaticum and Lilium Hansoni, It is very strong growing with 
long, symmetrical spikes of glossy, dark mahogany-brown flowers, shaded 
with rich orange and handsomely spotted. Very vigorous. Height 4 to 6 
feet. June-flowering. Does equally well in either full sun or partial shade. 
Fire King (Hybrid) Each $4.50, Doz. $45.00 
This striking Lily was raised by Mr. J. E. H. Stooke, the well-known Lily 
hybridist, and received the Award of Merit at the R. H. S. Lily Show in 
1934. The seed parent is a form of Lilium Umbellatum and the pollen 
parent of Lilium Willcrovidi. The name ‘‘Fire King’’ denotes the bril- 
liancy of the flowers, which have exceptional lasting qualities and will 
keep their color in sun and rain. 
George C. Creelman (Hybrid) Each $2.40, Doz. $24.00 
The long lasting flowers, which are very large, often measuring 8 inches 
in length, carried in large numbers on strong, long stems, with fine 
foliage, resemble a Regal Liy of the best and truest type, with bronzy 
tones more pronounced and a more intense yellow in the throat. It 
blooms two weeks after Regal Lily; many flowers opening at one time. 
We have counted 35 perfect flowers and buds on a six-foot spike. En- 
dle be from ordinary diseases. Easiest of culture and one of the 
ardiest. 
Giganteum Himalaicum Each $3.50, Doz. $35.00 
The most majestic of Lilies, having stems 10 to 12 feet high when estab- 
lished, with large handsome, heart-shaped leaves and from July to 
August bearing immense long, white, trumpet-shaped, sweetly scented 
flowers. Groups in woodland or wild gardens produce a grand effect. 
Must become established before flowering freely and thrives best in an 
abundance of leaf soil. 
Kelloggi Each $1.00, Doz. $11.00, 100 $85.00 
A rare and beautiful Lily, growing 2 to 3 feet high, bearing closely 
recurved “‘pink’’ flowers like those of the “Turk’s Cap’ Lily. Very 
graceful and fragrant. It succeeds best where the roots are shaded. 

Leichtlini Each $0.65, Doz. $6.50, 100 $45.00 
A beautiful Japanese Lily with much the same habit as Lilium Tigrinum 
or Tiger Lily, but the color is mostly pale yellow with dull red spots, 
Prefers a sandy loam. An excellent variety. July-August. 4 feet. 
Maxwell (Hybrid) Each $0.65, Doz. $6.50, 100 $45.00 
A new hybrid, being a cross between Lilium Leichtlini var. Maximowczi 
X Lilium Willmottiae. In its general habit and pyramidal inflorescence 
this hybrid is similar to Lilium Willmottiae, but the blooms are lighter 
in color, the stamens are longer and the anthers are orange-red. The 
spike is tall and very strong, but gracefully slender, bearing as many 
as 30 or more large recurving flowers. Height 6 to 7 feet. Comes into 
flower in late July. A splendid Lily acclaimed by Lily specialists the 
world over. Free flowering and remarkably free from the ordinary Lily 
diseases. Of easy culture. 
Monadelphum Szovitzianum Each $1.10, Doz. $11.00, 100 $75.00 
A very beautiful form with pale straw-yellow flowers, usually spotted 
purplish bluck. Quite distinct, and probably the finest form in cultiva- 
tion. Unfortunately, it has become very scarce. 
Parryi Each $1.30, Doz. $13.00, 100 $95.00 
Distinct and beautiful; grows from 4 to 6 feet high and the slender 
stems bear several funnel-shaped flowers of soft yellow, with conspicu- 
ous brown anthers, delicately fragrant. A partially shady place, sheltered 
from winds, with well-drained, peaty soil suit it well; easily cultivated 
but not a strong grower. 
Each $1.80, Doz. $18.00, 100 $130.00 
Pyrenaicum Aureum 
The Yellow Turk’s Cap Lily, which is of easy culture. The flowers are 
greenish yellow, spotted brown, with red anthers. June flowering. Height 
2 to 3 feet. 
Each $3.50, Doz. $35.00, 100 $100.00 
Sargentiae 
The flowers are funnel-shaped, milk-white internally with yellow throat, 
deep reddish brown externally; delightfully fragrant, on 4-foot stem. 
July or early August flowering. 
Scottiae (Hybrid) Each $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
An interesting new hybrid, being a cross between Lilium Willmottiae X 
Lilium Thunbergianum, Mahogany. Sturdy and erect in habit and 
growth with dark, glossy foliage, it bears in a rather close raceme up 
to ten to twelve semi-pendulous, recurving flowers about 4 inches 
across. Deep orange-red, shading to orange and thinly spotted with 
brown at the center. Height up to 3 feet. Considered by experts as 
one of the best of the new hybrid Lilies. 
Shelburne Hybrid Each $0.85, Doz. $8.50, 100 $60.00 
Regale Lilies are past; Princeps is fading; and Shelburne Hybrid is in 
its glory. That expresses the major difference of this sort, with the 
others. However, some bulbs bloomed with Regale, and some are not 
yet open, and there is much more variation in the size and form of 
the bloom. In the coloring, too, is much variation ranging from nearly 
clear white to heavily blushed sorts. If you can afford but one sort 
of Lily, buy this one. 
Sulphureum Each $2.30, Doz. $23.00 
One of the most beautiful Lilies ever introduced. Discovered by W. 
Boxall and flowered in England as far back as 1889. It has never been 
imported in quantity until recent years. Perhaps best considered half- 
hardy, although in many parts of the country it is growing well in the 
open. It is probably the longest trumpet-shaped Lily in cultivation. 
We have measured buds just before opening, 11 inches long. The flow- 
ers are pleasingly fragrant, pale sulphur-yellow, deepening at the throat. 
Outside shaded reddish brown, usually two to three on a stem. 
Willmottiae Each $0.60, Doz. $5.75, 100 $40.00 
A tall, graceful Lily with slender foliage. Produces 15 to 20 flowers of 
a vivid orange-red, with recurved petals and numerous small brown 
spots. A very lovely variety, adapted for the garden but will need 
staking. July and August. 4 to 5 feet. Largest bulbs. 
Cwo Lilies for Growing 
in the Greenhouse 
These are usually grown for specimens in pots for exhibition and 
decoration. Each bulb should produce from 12 to 18 flowers. 
The short time required to bring these peerless Lilies into flower 
renders them invaluable. The flowers are delightfully fragrant, pure 
waxy white, and if cut when partially open can be kept for 2 weeks, 
if desired. A succession of bloom can be kept throughout the winter 
by bringing a few pots of bulbs from cold frames at intervals. Bloom- 
ing plants in pots are suitable for Easter offerings and presents. Bulbs 
ready for shipment—August to December. 
*Longiflorum Harrisi (Bermuda Easter Lily) 
Extra bulbs. 7 to 9 inch circum. Each 40c, Doz. $4.00, 100 $27.50 
This is the most popular size to grow as pot plants for decoration and 
savally as valuable for cutting. Bulbs should produce from 8 to 12 
owers. 
Mammoth bulbs. 9 to 11 inch circumference. 
Each $0.50, Doz. $5.25, 100 $40.00 
These usually grown for specimens in pots for exhibition and decora- 
tion. Each bulb should produce from 12 to 18 flowers. For shipment in 
September and October. 
*Longiflorum giganteum (Japan Easter Lily) 
Extra bulbs. 9-10 inch. Each $0.40, Doz. $4.25, 100 $30.00 
This Japanese type is highly thought of for late winter and Easter 
forcing—though the bulbs of this variety are often carried over in cold 
storage to be brought into bloom at any desired time the succeeding 
year. The plant is of sturdy, sock growth, with black marked stems. 
The flowers, of purest white, are the largest of the Longiflorums. For 
shipment—October to December.
