The buds range from greenish sulphur through bronze 
green and pink. Some of the flowers are long and tubular, 
while others are short and wide open. The interiors are pure 
white or cream, with yellow, pale orange, dark orange, or green- 
ish throats. The anthers range from yellow, brown to dark 
brown. One of the outstanding characteristics of the group is 
that unlike most forms of L. regale the blooms are scattered 
along the stem at intervals and open gradually over a period of 
time, thus being in bloom from three to four weeks in mid- 
summer. The plants range in height from 3% to 6 feet. Plant 
8 to 10 inches deep. 
Especially fine bulbs. Each $1.00, $2.00 Dozen $11.00, $22.00 
GUINEA GOLD A Martagon-Hansonii hybrid that inherits the splen- 
did constitution of both parents. Pink buds make a fine con- 
trast with the open flowers which are yellow, thickly spotted 
with brown. Holds its color best in light shade. June flowering. 
Height 5 feet. Plant 6-7 inches deep. Flowering bulbs. 
Each $3.00 Dozen $32.00 
HANSONII (Korea) This is considered one of the best garden lilies 
because of its charm and ease of culture. Its Martagon-shaped 
blossoms are a rich cadmium yellow, spotted purplish-brown. It 
comes early — late June — and grows from 4 to 6 feet tall. It 
will hold its lovely color best if planted 8 to 10 inches deep in 
partial shade. 
Stock limited. Each $1.35 Dozen $15.00 
HENRYI (China) This is another vigorous and dependable lily. It 
comes into blossom just before the speciosums in mid to late 
August and carries as many as twenty flowers on 5 to 8 foot 
stems. The flowers though not as large as the speciosums are 
the same frilly recurved shape and are a soft orange-yellow 
with brown spots. The foliage is excellent but the plant is apt 
to require staking. Plant 9 to 10 inches deep. 
Each 40c, 50c Dozen $4.50, $5.50 
HENRYI CITRINUM This rare lily is exactly like the type except 
for color which is a vivid clear lemon yellow. A magnificent 
plant, but stocks are exceedingly shy. Each $10.00 
HORSFORDII A charming lily that blooms in early August and es- 
tablishes well in the garden. The Turk’s cap apricot blooms are 
sparsely spotted with black. Grows to 6 feet. Plant 4 to 6 inches 
deep. Each $1.00 Dozen $11.00 
HUMBOLDTI MAGNIFICUM One of the most striking of our na- 
tive American lilies. This form of Humboldtii is by far the best 
for general garden use as it is an extremely strong plant that 
flowers freely. In the eastern states this lily is capricious. The 
large reflexed blooms are of a golden orange color dotted ma- 
roon, each dot bordered by a crimson circle. The dark green 
foliage is most attractive and is born in whorls upon the stem. 
The large bulbs may be planted quite deeply — 8 to 10 inches — 
in a sunny position. July flowering. Each $1.25 Dozen $13.50
