L. REGALE—Our stock of this lily has been raised from seed, from specially 
selected stock plants. It is definitely superior to the ordinary commercial 
Regale lily in form and placement of the flowers. Culture is the same as for 
the Olympic Hybrids. Regale flowers a week to 10 days earlier and is some- 
what smallersin stature. ..0 0 eth ete 0 fe tote ee 24.00 
L. SARGEN TIAE—We offer the true form of this species which is interesting 
and valuable because of its habit of bearing stem bulbils in the axils of the 
leaves. The flowers are true trumpet shape, somewhat longer and more formal 
than the Olympic Hybrids. Not so free flowering nor as tall as the other 
trumpets, it is none the less distinctive and particularly valuable where a per- 
fectly uniform planting is desired. Compatible with several other species and 
hybrids it is very useful in hybridizing and is a parent of several well known 
hybrids. 
Of the same general culture of the Olympic Hybrids, L. Sargentiae flowers 
even later and extends the season another ten days to two weeks........... 100.00 
L. SHUKSAN—By far the best of the hybrids named and introduced by the 
late Dr. David C. Griffiths. It is the result of a cross between L. Humboldtit 
magnificum and L. Pardalinum. A handsome, easily grown, disease resistant 
garden lily. Similar in type and habit to the Bellingham Hybrids of which it ts 
one of the parents, L. Shuksan is happy under the same conditions and treat- 
ment. The bulbs are comparatively large and transplant easily if not held in 
storage too long or allowed to dry out. .-.2. 2. 2.2 3-12 #222 2 40.00 
SPECIOSUM ALBUM—The highly prized white form of Speciosum rub- 
rum. Somewhat smaller and less robust than the type. It 1s, however, not 
difficult to grow. Our stocks have been free from basal rot and mosaic infec- 
tions so prevalent among imported bulbs and these two factors have in the past 
been largely responsible for the frequent failures with this lily. Flowering ten 
days to two weeks later than the red form, it is one of the loveliest of cut 
flowers. Light shade is necessary in warmer climates to prevent the flowers 
from burning and opening too rapidly.......-.- 22+ eee ee eee ete eee 150.00 
SPECIOSUM RUBRU M—The red showy lily of Japan. A grand species tor 
earden decoration, cut flowers or pot culture in a cool greenhouse. Our strain 
is uniform, disease free and vigorous. The foundation stock was discovered 
locally on the slopes of Mount Hood, where it had grown undisturbed for some 
forty years. This lily has not proven to be as difficult as many writers would 
have us believe. A situation in well drained soil where it can receive light 
shade during the hottest part of the day is the main requirement for successful 
culture. The heavy basal roots make a fall growth and consequently it may 
require a year to become established. The smaller sized bulbs suffer less shock 
in transplanting and are recommended for general garden purposes. Plant the 
bulbs 6 inches deep. Late August and early September flowering......... 80.00
