LILIUM—LILY 
Place orders early and bulbs will be sent as soon as 
soon as ready. Plant them as soon as you receive them 
and do not remove or break the roots. 
Lilies are benefited by shade about the roots and 
stems, but do not do well with shade about their heads, 
so should be planted among fairly dwarf growing shrubs, 
ferns or herbaceous plants to give the mature stem the 
protection it craves from the heat of the sun and to keep 
the ground around the bulb more or less cool. 
The soil for lilies should be fibrous and rooty, some 
leaf mold or peat added, and deeply dug. Sharp sand 
placed around the bulb insures good drainage. Charcoal 
and sulphur sprinkled about in planting tend to ward 
off attacks of worms and blue mold. 
Plant 1 foot apart and at depths specified below. Water 
only lightly until they are well rooted, but liberally 
when about to bloom; keep free from aphis or green fly 
at all times. 
Lily bulbs are for October to December delivery, ex- 
cept CANDIDUM, which should be ordered in September 
or October for early planting.
