Also known as ‘‘Excelsum’’ and as the ‘’Nankeen Lily.’’ One 
of the choicest garden Lilies. The warm apricot tone, almost a 
cafe au lait, set off by brilliant orange anthers, puts it in a color 
class by itself; in fact, many people consider it the most graceful 
and lovely of all Lilies. It is beautiful for every kind of garden 
use but because of its tender coloring, must be planted in a 
mixed border with brighter flowers. In combination with light 
shaded Delphiniums or with the Madonna Lily, which it resembles, 
it is most effective. It has the texture of Lilium Candidum, with 
reflexed petals, and does well under the same conditions as Can- 
didum. Four to five feet high. June-July flowering.

Lilium Centifolium ; (Wayside Hybrids 

These magnificent hybrids are the result of crossing Lilium Leucanthum variety Chloraster 
with Lilium Sargentae and again with Lilium Regale. The flowers are immense white trumpets 
borne on stems rising 6 to 8 feet in height, resembling greatly enlarged and improved Regale 
Lilies. Delightfully fragrant and superbly showy. While all are white inside, the external color- 
ing varies from emerald-green through tints of pink to brownish purple, each and every one ey. 
with growing and adding interest. The name (Centi-folium, hundred leaved) is suggestive of = 
its abundant foliage. We are very pleased to be finally able to offer these gorgeous hybrid ¥ 
Lilies and believe them to be an exceptional addition to any Lily collection. J 
Fortunately, they 
are hardy and of simplest culture, growing even more luxuriantly than the Regale Lily. Plant 
in light shade 5 inches deep in soil perfectly drained. Give slight protection in coldest part of 
the country. They flower in July and August after the Regales have passed.
