TIGRINUM Splendens—This va- 
riety of lily has been raised by 
the Chinese as an article of food 
for over a thousand years. 
Doesn’t that make you almost 
shudder when you think of the 
place it occupies in our gardens 
during August? It is a wonder- 
ful specimen lly, blooming at 
a time when we need its bright 
salmon-red and orange to tone 
up and cheer up the garden in 
late August, after the other 
lies are gone and the Specio- 
sums are not yet in bloom. If 
you can place this in front of 
ereen foliage, or in some cor- 
ner by itself, and leave it grow 

well reward vou. Height 4-6 ft. 
Plant 7-8 in. deep, sun or par- 
tial shade, well drained soil. Ser ae aiaey

TIGRINUM var. Fortunei (Korea)—A very robust, late flowering form of the 
Tiger lily, which bears large salmon-orange recurved flowers on 5 to 6 foot 
stems. The stems are woolly and the flowers have smaller spots than var. 
Splendens. As with the other varieties of L. Tigrinum, this plant is of easiest 
culture in practically any location. Culture same as var. Splendens. Late 
August-September flowering.

TIGRINUM flore pleno—This is the only double lly I have. The word “lily” 
seems to associate itself in our minds with a single blossom, and we some- 
times resent the thought of a double lily, but I think you will find this 
double lily an addition to your garden, not only because it is an attractive 
lily in itself, but it will prolong the “reign of the Tigers” after most of the 
other lilies are gone. It grows 3 to 5 ft. Blooms Aug.-Sept. Flore pleno 
does not make as large a bulb as Splendens, so plant 5 to 6 inches deep.
