Michells Hardy G arden Lilies 
What is a garden without a planting of Hardy Lilies? For herbaceous borders they are not to be exceeded. Planting 
among perennials, for sufficient shade, is recommended. 
Planted from 6 to 10 inches deep, bulbs thrive when enveloped in sand. Manure should not come in direct contact with 
the bulb, but may be placed 4 to 6 inches underneath—loose-petaled bulbs should be planted on their sides rather than 
upright. Leaf or litter protection during the winter is best.
