L. MARTAGON ALBUM. The waxy white martagon Lily is entirely 
irresistible in its elfin grace and habit of bloom. Of the easiest 
culture it increases rapidly after establishment, and two year old 
clumps often bear four to six stems up to four feet tall each bearing 
as high as fifteen flowers. The frosty white reflexed blooms against 
an evergreen background, among perennials or low shrubs are 
especially beautiful in the moonlight. With the greater part of its. 
whorled, dark green foliage toward the base of the stem, the white 
martagon is an excellent cut flower and for evening wear it is.

L. MAXWILL. First classified as a hybrid of two species native to 
Korea and central China, L. Maxwill is now considered an improved 
variety of the Chinese L. Davidii var. Willmottiae. A superior Lily 
in every way its twenty to forty gracefully spaced flaming orange- 
red recurved flowers on tall, straight stems can illuminate the 
shrubbery border a large part of July. In its native state the type

L. PARDALINUM GIGANTEUM (Sunset Lily) Improved, larger form 
- of one of our most beautiful and easily grown natives popularly 
known as the Panther Lily which ranges over northern California, 
Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and which makes tentative 
forays into the Rockies. Large, strongly recurved flowers two-thirds 
flaming orange-red with a central zone of orange and spotted 
maroon, on tall, heavy stems clothed in bright green, whorled 
leaves make the Sunset Lily a highly dramatic member of a spec- 
tacular family. Its performance is best when planted in slight shade 
and moist, cool soil since it selects streamsides, damp meadows and 
the fringes of cold mountain springs in the wild state. In ecultiva?
