HARDY LILIES (Lilinm) 
No class of plants capable of being cultivated outdoors possesses 
so many charms. Rich and varied in ‘color, stately and handsome in 
habit, profuse in variety, and of delicious fragrance, they stand out 
prominently from all other hardy plants, and no herbaceous bor- 
der, however select, should be without a few of the best sorts. 
Lilies thrive best in a well-dug, rich soil. Deep planting is rec- 
ommended—at least 6 inches deep for most, and more than that 
for the Speciosum varieties. For best effects place the bulbs in 
clumps of six or more, with at least one inch of sand beneath, 
over, and around each one, then cover with soil.
