AURELIANENSE SEEDLINGS The seedlings of L. aurelianense 
give us a splendid new race of August flowering lilies, each 
slightly different from the other. They tend toward the trumpet 
or open-trumpet shapes, but some are re-curved. The color 
range is from soft orange yellow to pale ivory. All of them in- 
herit the vigorous constitution of L. Henryi and provide a cap- 
tivating array of color and shape when grown as a group in the 
garden. Each 50c, 85c¢ Dozen $5.00, $8.50 
BACKHOUSE HYBRIDS A group raised by the late Mrs. R. O. 
Backhouse and a priceless addition to the garden. The individ- , 
ual blooms though not large are charming and are Martagon 
shaped, growing on a long spike. They are difficult to classify 
as to color for, actually, they are variable and iridescent, rang- 
ing from pale ivory through the golds, pink, mauve, apricot, 
orange—all variously flushed and marked. An excellent group 
for the garden as they are not particular as to soil or location, 
establish well and are quite immune to mosaic. Height 5 to 6 
feet. Plant about 6 inches. Late June to early July flowering. 
Un-named seedlings. Each $2.50 
BROCADE One of the finest of the named hybrids. The flow- 
ers are orange-yellow with pink marbling and maroon 
spots. A free-flowering lily and a vigorous grower. We are 
indeed fortunate to be able to list it. Each $3.00 
MRS. R. O. BACKHOUSE This is one of the most attractive 
and probably the most vigorous of the entire group. There 
are a great many beautifully colored Martagon-shaped 
blooms to a stalk. The interior of the petals is ivory over- 
laid with a transparent flush of gold and delicately flecked 
with reddish-purple. The reverse of the petals is a deeper 
yellow shaded with greenish-orange though the reverse 
does not show when the blooms are expanded. Plant 6 to 8 
inches. Each $2.50 
SCEPTRE One of the loveliest of this group. The blooms are 
considerably larger than either of the two listed above. 
The color is deep rose pink over an ivory base. As the plant 
matures the color fades to a golden ivory flecked with pur- 
ple. This is a vigorous plant and frequently reaches 6 feet 
when established. Each $3.50 
SUTTON COURT Similar to Mrs. R. O. Backhouse in form 
but of a deeper tone. Pale, glittering, canary yellow. 
Stock very limited. Each $5.00 
Note: See Martagon-Hansoniu hybrids. 
BELLINGHAM HYBRIDS The late Dr. David Griffiths of the United 
States Department of Agriculture has left us this group of 
choice lilies. They are flioriferous and of splendid constitution. 
The entire group are crosses of L. Humboldtii, Parryi and par- 
dalinum, have sharply recurved blooms of excellent color. Their 
flowering period is in July.
