ering. Plant 6 to 8 inches. Each 60c Dozen $6.50 
DAVIDI A striking lily that has been neglected in American gar- 
dens. The plant grows to 6 feet and bears a raceme of brilliant 
red Turk’s cap blooms. The habit is graceful and the stature 
and color make it outstanding no matter what else is in flower 
at the time. Early July. Plant 6 to 8 inches. 
Each 65c Dozen $7.00 
DAVIDI var. WILLMOTTIAE This is one of the Orient’s finest con- 
tributions to our gardens. The deep orange-red flowers grow on 
a pyramidal raceme. As many as 20 of the Martagon-shaped 
blossoms are carried on the graceful 5-foot stems. It blossoms 
in mid-July, has a strong constitution, is easily established and 
is immune to the diseases that affect some lilies. Plant 8 to 10 
inches deep. Each 60c Dozen $6.50 
DUCHARTREI (Tibet) A rare and very distinctive Tibetan species 
that has not been under cultivation for long. The plant is slender 
and grows to from 2 to 4 feet tall bearing a raceme of pendant, 
recurved blooms, cold marble white in color, delicately flecked 
with purple and marked with green in the throat. When well 
grown this lily is one of the loveliest plants in cultivation; but 
it is capricious. It seems to prefer a rather light acid soil with 
a good humus content preferably on the dry side. It has wan- 
dering underground stolons and may come up as much as two 
feet away from where the bulb is planted. Grown with azaleas 
and rhododendrons it is especially charming. June flowering. 
Plant 4 to 5 inches deep. Each $2.00 Dozen $22.00 
EDNA KEAN See Preston hybrids. 
ELEGANS (Thunbergianum) (Japan) A group of upright cup- 
shaped lilies that resemble the dauricum-umbellatum groups in 
appearance. For sheer brilliant color in the garden they are in- 
spent Blooming period late June, early July. Plant 5 to 
inches. 
ATROSANGUINEUM One of the most admired lilies in our 
planting. A dwarf, fine deep red with dark crimson center 
and black spots. It grows to but 8 to 10 inches and is later 
blooming than most of this group. Excellent for the fore- 
ground of the border. Each 75c Dozen $8.25 
DOUBLE SCARLET A new and striking form. The color is a 
soft rich rosy pink without a trace of the orange-red col- 
oring common to this group. The blooms are very large 
and carry in the center a cluster of somewhat paler peta- 
loids. We consider this the only good double lily in exist- 
ence. The plant grows to less than a foot, and is a good 
grower, increasing rapidly in the garden. 
Stock very limited. Each $1.50 Dozen $16.50
