LILIUM

Perhaps you would like to grow your own lily bulbs. 
Some of them grow to blooming size very quickly, while 
others require more time. 
To grow lilies from seeds sterilize the soil and sow 
seeds in flats or ground beds in a cool greenhouse or 
frame. The following easy germinating species will show 
top growth within 3 to 8 weeks. Transplant carefully to 
plant bands or frames after seedlings are several months 
old. 
DAURICUM—The lovely upr'ght flowers are in shades 
of orange, flushed and spotted red. Height 1% to 2 ft.
