CATESBAEI LONGII See Mrs. Henry’s Rare Native Lilies. 
CATHAYAN UM (China) A rare and interesting species not here- 
tofore in commerce. This lily is closely related to L. cordatum 
and L. giganteum himaliacum. Treat the same as the latter 
species. Each $3.00 
CENTIFOLIUM (China) This glorious variety has always been so 
rare as to be almost mythical and, consequently, until the last 
few years bulbs have commanded fabulous prices. It is a very 
tall (5 to 10 feet) mid-season variety. The fragrant trumpets 
are immensely large, white with a flash of yellow in the throat 
and the outside is stained with rose purple. Unlike most bulbs 
on the market these have not been crossed with other strains of 
trumpet lilies but are seedlings of the true L. centifolium. Plant 
8 to 10 inches. Each 85c, $2.00 Dozen $8.50, $20.00 
CERNUUM (Korea) This is not a commonly planted variety be- 
cause bulbs are not very easily available. Cernuum is a delicate 
and lovely plant, that grows from 1% to 2 feet tall and bears 
from 4 to 6 recurved blossoms per stem. The flowers range in 
color from pale pink to lilac and are spotted with deep purple. 
It is a successful garden variety and blossoms just after tenui- 
folium. Plant 4 to 5 inches deep. Each 75c Dozen $7.50 
CHALCEDONICUM (Greece) Commonly known as “The Old Scar- 
let Martagon” this is a gorgeous waxy, scarlet Turk’s cap lily. 
It is difficult to establish in this country, but there is nothing 
that can compare with it for brilliance. Plant 4 inches deep in a 
sunny position. It likes a clay soil, and lime is beneficial. July. 
Offered subject to delivery from England. Each $3.00 
COLUMBIANUM var. INGRAMII This variety of the widely distrib- 
uted West Coast L. columbianum comes from southern Oregon. 
It resembles L. Humboldtii but is smaller. The bright golden- 
orange flowers spotted with purple are Martagon in form. 
Height from 3 to 4 feet. June-July. Plant 5 to 6 inches deep in 
partial shade. Each 75c Dozen $7.50 
CONCOLOR (Korea) This lily is frequently compared to L. tenui- 
folium though the resemblance is actually very slight. In L. 
concolor the blooms are upright rather than pendant, are wide- 
open and delicately star-shaped rather than recurved, and they 
are a deeper tone of scarlet. The plant itself is somewhat taller, 
with broader slightly hairy leaves and stem. It flowers a few 
weeks later than L. tenuifolium and is a most charming lily, one 
of our favorites. Plant 4 to 6 inches. Each 40c Dozen $4.00
