LILIUM CANDIDUM 
(Madonna or Ascension Lily) 
When planting Lilium Candidum in pots, cover the bulbs not more 
than 2 inches. Use 24 c.M. or, better yet, 26 ¢.M. Northern-grown bulbs. 
You can put one bulb in a 6-inch pot, but 3 in a 10-inch pot seem to 
give better spikes. Use some lime in the potting soil—Candidum is a lime- 
loving lily. Water sparingly until the rosette of leaves is well up, and 
allow exposure to several good frosts, which seems to predispose the 
plants for more rapid forcing. Move them into warmer quarters about 
January 15th. Lilium Candidum will be of much finer quality when grown 
moderately cool and never above 55° at night; grown warmer, the flowers 
will be smaller and lacking in substance.

The following applies to all Lilies: right before potting, remove any 
flabby and discolored outside scales. This promotes vigorous root 
growth.
