HARDY LILIES fo grow outdoors 
We are likely to think Lilies are too fine for 
the amateur to grow because they are so 
beautiful and fragrant. However, there are 
many hardy thrifty varieties capable of with- 
standing conditions which overcome less 
beautiful flowers. Grow them in the border 
in small groups, with background plants, 
where their beauty has a suitable setting. 
Outdoor Culture. Lilies planted out- 
doors should have a well-drained position 
where they will be shaded from very hot sun. 
Never mix manure in soil around Lilies; use 
S. & W. Co. Bulb Fertilizer or bonemeal. 
Many varieties of Lilies are “‘stem-rooters’”’— 
they develop roots on the stem up to 2 to 3 
inches from the ground. These roots are vo- 
racious feeders and on them depend greatly 
the number and size of the flowers. When the 
buds appear give the plant a top-dressing of 
good rich soil on which they can feed freely. 
Spade over the ground thoroughly to a depth 
of 18 inches before planting Lilies. Put some 
sand under and around the bulbs and after 
covering protect with 6 to 8 inches of leaves 
or other litter. 
CANADENSE FLAVUM. Giant sprays of 
nodding bell-like pale yellow blooms on 3 to
