LILIUM PARDALINUM GIGANTEUM 
Sunset Lily Each 30c, Doz. $3.00, 100 $20.00 
Vigorous, hardy, of easiest culture, and dependable. Much more can- 
not be said. Under ideal conditions the stalks attain 7 feet, clothed 
with luxurious foliage and bearing a dozen or more beautiful flowers 
in July. The petals are somewhat recurving, and a brilliant sunset-red, 
base of flower yellow, heavily spotted with small brown dots. The 
“Sunset Lily’ is one of the most satisfactory ever grown. (Color illus- 
tration, page 117.) 
*Philadelphicum Each 30c, Doz. $3.00, 100 $20.00 
A handsome native Lily with yellow, cup-shaped flowers, spotted maroon 
and shaded orange at ends of petals. Good for naturalizing. July. 
Height 3 feet. 
Philippinense (Formosanum) Each 50c, Doz. $4.75, 100 $32.00 
The substantial blooms are trumpet-like, in fact, they are long lovely 
white flowers with a beautiful pale emerald-green throat which gives 
the flower a distinct and delicate appearance. They commence blooming 
in early August, and flower until stopped by frost. Bulbs when estab- 
lished will produce 3 to 4 spikes each with 4 or 5 blooms. It is a most 
liberal flowering Lily, to all of which may be added that they are among 
the easiest grown. Height 4 to 6 feet. (Color illustration, page 118.) 
Resale (The Regal or Royal Lily) 
See page 118.) 
Sargentiae Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
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. 
Shelburne Hybrid Each 80c, Doz. $8.00 
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 $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
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 ports 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. 
*Superbum Each 30c, Doz. $2.75, 100 $18.00 
The color in this desirable Lily varies from pale yellow to deep crimson, 
more or less spotted on the inner surface of the petals. Valuable as a 
late-flowering Lily. Fine established specimens often reach a height of 
10 feet and more, bearing from 20 to 30 elegantly reflexed flowers, 
arranged in large, conelike clusters. Does well in ordinary garden soil. 
July-flowering. 
*T enuifolium Each 25c, Doz. $2.25, 100 $14.00 
A charming little early flowering Lily with strongly recurved petals of 
waxy texture; deep scarlet. A gem in the rock garden as in the border. 
Likes a cool, damp, loamy soil and partial shade, but does well any- 
where in well drained soil. 
Tenuifolium, Golden Gleam Each 55c, Doz. $5.50, 100 $38.00 
A beautiful, robust, and floriferous hybrid of this type, bearing numer- 
ous flowers of a pure apricot-yellow. June flowering. 
*Tigrinum splendens Each 30c, Doz. $2.75, 100 $18.00 
The finest form of Tiger Lily with the richest color. The large, shapely 
flowers are of a rich dark salmon-orange spotted with glossy black. This 
Lily is very robust in habit and of easy culture. August-September 
flowering. (Color illustration, page 118.) 
*Tigrinum flore pleno Each 30c, Doz. $3.00, 100 $20.00 
The double form. The best example of a double Lily we have. 
Umbellatum, Apricot Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
The flowers are of a lovely shade of delicate apricot-yellow borne in 
large heads. This Lily is at its best when grown in a cool, shady position. 
Umbellatum, Golden Fleece Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
A striking break from the usual red and orange tones of the Umbellatum 
group. This fine variety has large umbellate heads of clear golden yel- 
low flowers with a suggestion of scarlet at the tips of the petals. It is 
very effective as a border plant, and possesses a strong constitution. 
*Umbellatum grandiflorum Each 50c, Doz. $4.75, 100 $32.00 
A very free-flowering Lily of easy culture. Carries large umbellate 
heads of light orange-red flowers. (Color illustration, page 117.) 
*Umbellatum, Mahogany _ Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
The deepest in color yet raised. Comparatively small in stature with 
heads of fine broad petaled flowers, deep glowing crimson-like, deepen- 
ing to a rich mahogany-crimson as the flowers pass. 
*W allacei Each 65c, Doz. $6.50, 100 $45.00 
A handsome Lily of a beautiful shade of the warmest apricot with rosy 
shading. Height 11% to 2 feet. 
*Washingtonianum Each 75c, Doz. $7.50 
A beautiful Lily with fragrant drooping white flowers on a stem Batons 
feet high. The reverse of the flowers has a tinge ranging from light 
pink to a deep wine color. This Lily requires a thoroughly drained situ- 
ation. June-July flowering. 
Willmottiae Each 75c, Doz. $7.50 
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.

Lilium Centifolium 
This gorgeous Lily has beautiful white trumpet-like flowers that are 
half again as large as those of the Regale Lily. Grows without trouble, 
is delightfully fragrant. Plant with Madonna Lilies and prolong the 
flowering period. We recommend it highly.
