to thirty light, spotted, purple flowers when established; very 
graceful, vigorous and floriferous. Base-rooting; fall planting

MARTAGON ALBUM. There are few more beautiful things 
than the white Martagon Lily when seen in its best form and 
thriving in such a way as to reveal its full beauty. The appear- 
ance of these Lilies is graceful and delightful in the extreme. 
Rising on slender stems, 4, 5, and sometimes nearly 6 feet high, 
the numerous drooping, waxlike, white “Turk’s Cap” flowers, 
with yellow-tipped stamens, look inexpressibly fascinating. The 
small flowers are symmetrical in shape, with reflexed petals, 
and are borne in terminal, pyramid-shaped clusters. The white 
Martagon appears to flourish best where its lower growth has 
the benefit of the partial shade afforded by herbaceous plants 
or shrubs and it never looks better than when springing through 
and towering over some of moderate vigor. They like loamy 
soil, but they are finest in cool damp places. The Martagon 
Lily does wonderfully well in the shade of trees, and the white 
variety is no exception in this respect. Few, if any, stem-roots; 
fall planting only, 6 inches deep; June-flowering. Extra-heavy, 
selected bulbs, $6.00 for 10; $55.00 per 100. 
PYRENAICUM AUREUM. The yellow “Turk’s Cap” Lily, 
which is of easy culture. The flowers are greenish yellow 
spotted brown, with red anthers. Base-rooting. Plant in fall 
only, 5 inches deep; June-flowering. Height 2 to 3 feet. Extra 
heavy, selected bulbs, $1.25 each; $10.00 for 10; $97.50 per 
100. 
TENUIFOLIUM. A charming little early-flowering Lily with 
strongly recurved petals of waxy texture; deep scarlet. A gem 
in the rock garden as in the border. Likes a cool, damp, loamy 
soil and partial shade. Stem-roots; fall planting only, 7 inches 
deep; early June-flowering. Extra selected bulbs, $3.25 for 10; 
$30.00 per 100. A smaller, good, flowering bulb, $2.75 for 10; 
$25.00 per 100. See illustration, page 47. 
TENUIFOLIUM, GOLDEN GLEAM. A beautiful, robust, and 
floriferous hybrid of this type, bearing numerous flowers of a 
pure apricot-yellow. A very elegant and fine plant. Flowers 
splendidly every year and is always much admired. Stem-roots; 
fall planting only, 7 inches deep; early June-flowering. Extra 
heavy, selected bulbs, $4.00 for 10; $37.50 per 100. A smaller, 
good, flowering bulb, $2.85 for 10; $25.00 per 100. See illustra- 
tion, page 4/. 
TESTACEUM. This beautiful Lily is also known as “Excelsum” 
and as the “Nankeen Lily.” One of the choicest border Lilies. 
The dull apricot tone, set off by orange anthers, puts it in a 
color class by itself. There is a tender warmth in the color of 
this charming Lily. It is the most graceful of all. It often 
grows from 5 to 6 feet high when established, and the hori- 
zontally poised heads of drooping flowers wave in a breeze in 
a graceful way. It is beautiful for every kind of garden use 
but loses effect, because of its tender coloring, if planted in a 
mixed border with brighter flowers. In combination with light 
shaded Delphiniums or with the Madonna Lily, which it re- 
sembles in the disposal of its leaves on the stem and in a certain 
grace of habit, it is most effective. It is also a oor Lily for 
pot culture. It has the texture of Lilium Candidum, with re- 
flexed petals. It does well under the same conditions as L. Can- 
didum, and should be planted the same depth, 2 inches below 
the surface of the ground. It flourishes best in loam and semi- 
shade. Base-roots; fall planting only, 2 inches deep. June-July 
flowering. Extra heavy, selected bulbs, $2.25 each; $21.00 per 
10.
