Lilium Centifolium 
This gorgeous Lily has superbly beautiful white trumpet-like flowers 
that are half again as large as those of the Regale Lily. Grows with- 
out trouble, is delightfully fragrant. Plant with Madonna Lilies and 
prolong the flowering period. We recommend it highly. See page 106 
also.

vation in this country. It bears as many as six vivid red Turk’s Cap

Crow’s Hybrids Each $0.75, Doz. $7.50 
We offer selected seedlings of this magnificent strain of trumpet Lilies, 
hybrids of Lilium Sulphurgale x Lilium Princeps. These plants bloom 
some two weeks later than Lilium Regale and, while some variance will 
be noted in their coloring, all are exceptionally vigorous and beautiful. 
The flowers generally are white with greenish golden throats and orange 
to dark brown anthers. The exterior of the petals is shaded brown, 
purple or green. Well established plants will carry up to 30 flowers. 
Plant in sun or partial shade 6 inches deep. Height 4 to 6 feet. Selected 
flowering bulbs, October-December delivery. 
Davidi Each $0.40, Doz. $4.00 
A fine Lily from Western China, very graceful, with a tall, slender stem, 
strong and erect, and bearing up to twenty or more bright cinnabar-red 
tiger-like flowers, copiously spotted with glossy black. It combines a 
very refined and elegant appearance with a splendid constitution and 
is one of the best summer-flowering Lilies we have. Height 5 to 7 feet. 
Plant in either a sunny or partially shaded position. ~ 
George C. Creelman (Hybrid) Each $0.85, Doz. $8.50 
The long lasting flowers, which are very large, often measuring 8 inches 
in length, carried in large numbers on strong, long stems, with fine 
foliage, resemble a Regal Lily of the best and truest type, with bronzy 
tones more pronounced and a more intense yellow in the throat. It 
blooms two weeks after Regal Lily; many flowers opening at one time. 
We have counted 35 perfect flowers and buds on a six-foot spike. 
Pe free from ordinary diseases. Easiest of culture and one of the 
ardiest. 
Giganteum Himalaicum Each $3.50, Doz. $35.00 
The most majestic of Lilies, having stems 10 to 12 feet high when 
established, with large handsome, heart-shaped leaves and from July 
to August bearing immense long, white, trumpet-shaped, sweetly 
scented flowers. Groups in woodland or wild gardens produce a grand 
effect. Must become established before flowering freely and thrives 
best in an abundance of leaf soil. 
Kelloggi Each $0.80, Doz. $8.00 
A rare and beautiful Lily, growing 2 to 3 feet high, bearing closely 
recurved ‘‘pink’’ flowers like those of the ‘’Turk’s Cap” Lily. Very grace- 
ful and fragrant. It succeeds best where the roots are shaded. 
Maxwill (Hybrid) Each $0.60, Doz. $6.00 
A new hybrid, being a cross between Lilium Leichtlini var. Maximowiczi 
X Lilium Willmottiae. In its general habit and pyramidal inflorescence 
this hybrid is similar to Lilium Willmottiae, but the blooms are lighter 
in color, the stamens are longer and the anthers are orange-red. The 
spike is tall and very strong, but gracefully slender, bearing as many 
as 30 or more large recurving flowers. Height 6 to 7 feet. Comes into 
flower in late July. A splendid Lily acclaimed by Lily specialists the 
world over. Free flowering and remarkably free from the ordinary Lily 
diseases. Of easy culture. 
Monadelphum Szovitzianum Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
A very beautiful form with pale straw-yellow flowers, usually spotted 
purplish black. Quite distinct, and probably the finest form in cultiva- 
tion. Unfortunately, it has become very scarce. 
‘ 
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 $0.65, Doz. $6.50 
Regate 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 blogm. 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 $2.50, Doz. $25.00 
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- 
herdy, although in many parts 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. 
Willmottiae ; Each $0.75, 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.
