DAVIDIT MACRANTHUM This is a very satisfactory and attractive 
small Tiger lily that merits a place in any garden. The flowers 
are nodding with reflexed petals which are cinnabar red with 
black spots. It follows L. Willmottiae into bloom, enjoys sun- 
shine and will grow in any loam. 
Each 40¢ Dozen $4.00 Hundred $39.09 
DAVMOTTIAE We are again indebted to Miss Preston for a mag- 
nificent hybrid. Mature bulbs send up very tall stems and have 
been known to carry as many as 50 flowers. The color is soft 
orange-red and the flowers are borne at right angles to the stem. 
Plant 6 to 8 inches deep. Height 5 to 6 feet, occasionally taller. 
Each 60c Dozen $6.00

DUCHARTREI (Tibet) A rare and very distinctive Tibetan species 
that has not been under cultivation for long. The plant is slender 
and grows to from 2 to 4 feet tall bearing a raceme of pendant, 
recurved blooms, cold marble white in color, delicately flecked 
with purple and marked with green in the throat. When well 
grown this lily is one of the loveliest plants in cultivation; but 
it is capricious. It seems to prefer a rather light acid soil with 
a good humus content preferably on the dry side. It has wan- 
dering underground stolons and may come up as much as two 
feet away from where the bulb is planted. Grown with azaleas 
and rhododendrons it is especially charming. June flowering. 
Plant 4 to 5 inches deep. Each $1.50 Dozen $15.00

ELEGANS (Thunbergianum) (Japan) <A group of upright cup- 
shaped lilies that resemble the dauricum-umbellatum groups in 
appearance. For sheer brilliant color in the garden they are in- 
dispensable. 
ALICE WILSON The true Alice Wilson is so rare as to be con- 
sidered practically non-existent. As it grew for us it was 
about eight inches tall with wide-open pale but warm yel- 
low flowers lightly spotted black. The individual blooms 
were almost as large as good L. auratum and had the same 
wavy petals. 
Not available this season. 
ALICE WILSON, Commercial Form This is not the true Alice 
Wilson, but is the form usually sold under that name. It 
is a dwarf plant, growing to about 10 inches and bearing 
heads of orange yellow blooms. It differs from the true 
Alice Wilson both in color and in the size of bloom. It is 
one of the best dwarf lilies, even though it is mis-named. 
Each 60c Dozen $6.90 
ATROSANGUINEUM One of the most admired lilies in our 
planting. A dwarf, fine deep red with dark crimson center 
and black spots. It grows to but 12 to 15 inches and is later 
blooming than most of this group. Excellent for the fore- 
ground of the border. Each 40c Dozen $4.69 
ALUTACEUM X DECORUM HYBRIDS A new Canadian 
roup of hybrids with wide-open brilliantly colored blooms.
