CULTURAL NOTES 
We make every effort to supply 
you with lily bulbs in good grow- 
ing condition. Do not let them 
dry out by leaving them in a dry 
warm place. As a rule the sooner 
they are put back into the 
ground the better off they will 
be. This prompt planting is es- 
pecially required with Auratum. 
Six inches deep is enough for al- 
most all the lily bulbs we offer. 
Of course Candidum requires 
very shallow planting and Au- 
ratum should be planted only 3 
or 4 inches deep. Most of the 
lilies like a loose free working, 
well drained soil, rich in humus 
with an ample supply of mois- 
ture at all times. Caution should 
be exercised in using animal ma- 
nures or any other type of fer- 
tilizer. All of the lilies except 
Candidum appreciate a ground 
cover or mulch to help keep the 
soil cool and moist.
