MARTAGON ALBU M—tThe pure white form of the long cultivated Marta- 
gon lily that is so popular in Europe and England. The dainty waxy flowers 
are gracefully placed and form a symmetrical pyramid on 4-foot stems. One 
of the most permanent of all lilies, once it is happily settled it will increase from 
year to year, forming larger and finer spikes. Our seedlings have prospered 
extremely well and the bright yellow bulbs are sound and healthy. It should 
be planted not deeper than four inches in a well drained sunny _ loca-

L. MAXWILL—Recently classified as a selection rather than a true hybrid, 
nevertheless, it is a distinctive improvement over L. Willmottiae. In fact, we

tall and straight, bearing from twenty to thirty gracefully spaced bright orange 
flowers. Plant the bulbs six inches deep where it will receive full sun. Trouble

lilies we grow, this supposed natural hybrid between L. Humboldtii and L. Par- 
dalinum is a trouble free, strong growing lily which does well in almost any 
situation. As with the other hybrids of the west coast native lilies it prefers 
slight shade and moist, cool soil. Plant + to 5 inches deep, in a location where 
it can grow undisturbed and it will rapidly form a large clump. Height 4 to 
6 feet. The bright red tipped recurved flowers open in early July........... 20.00 
L. PUMILUM (Syn. L. Tennifolium)—The popular Coral lily, bearing 
numerous small recurved flowers in June, of a brilliant scarlet. Stems are thin, 
strong and wiry, reaching a height of 3 to 4 feet. 
Pumilum does well in light soil in a sunny, warm spot. The small bulbs 
should be set 3 to + inches deep and about 6 inches apart. The often repeated 
theory that this lily is short lived has no basis whatsoever. Our selected seed 
plants have grown into enormous bulbs and produce magnificent spikes year
