Burpee’s Hardy Garden LILIES 
___ Easy to grow in any good, well-drained garden loam to which has been added _a generous quantity of leaf mold. 
- Once established, they will increase in beauty each year. Most all lilies delight in a sunny location, but mulch 
_ So that the hot sun does not reach the soil around-the base of the plant. All. varieties offered are highly decora-: 
_ tive in the border, while the dwarfer ones also give a charming touch of beauty to the rock garden. Lily bulbs 
differ greatly in size according to variety, some 1 in. across, others 3 in. or. more; we supply the sizes which will’: 
give the best results. We do not recommend hardy lily bulbs for house culture; for this purpose, plant the 
Easter Lilies offered on page 30. .
