RECALE LILY 
The Hardy Lilies 
Lilies are the most fragrant and beauti- 
ful of all bulbous plants and stand first in 
that class with their graceful habit ‘and rich 
coloring making them invaluable for decor- 
ation, either as cut flowers or border plants. 
All Lilies demand good drainage. They 
should be planted in open, porus soil. Sur- 
round the bulb with sand and plant them on 
their sides. All bulbs offered below are 
large flowering sizes. 
Candidum. (Madonna Lily). Waxy pure 
white. Cover bulb with only 3 inches of 
soil. Large bulbs, 50c; doz. $5.00. 
Centifolium. The flowers are immense 
white trumpets, borne on stems rising 6 
to 8 feet in height resembling greatly en- 
larged and improved Regal Lily. It is 
just a little later than Regal. Each 60c; 
doz $6.00. 
Regale. This is the hardiest of all Lilies 
and perhaps the most beautiful. The 
flowers are very fragrant, funnel-shaped, 
with rose-purple back; yellow throat and 
marble-white face. Plant bulbs 8 inches 
deep. Remember this; all Lily bulbs 
should be laid on their sides when planted 
and the Regale is no exception. Mammoth 
sized bulbs. Each, 30c; doz. $3.00. 
Tenuifolium. This is an extra tall strain we 
have developed by selection. Brilliant 
coral reflexing flowers carried on wiry 
stems 2 to 4 feet tall. It is very satis- 
factory. Plant 6 inches deep. Each, 25c; 
dozen, $2.50. 
Tiger Lily. The most widely known Lily of 
all. Dark salmon-orange. Very hardy. 
Plant 8 inches deep. Each, 25c; doz. $2.50. 
Umbellatum. We believe this deep orange- 
red is the best of the many varieties. 
Strong upright grower, very healthy. 
Each, 25c; doz. $2.50. 
BETTER DAHLIAS 
The following Dahlias are supplied in dor- 
mant field-grown roots or divisions and 
each division before we ship it out must 
show a live eye or sprout. They come pack- 
ed in peat moss. Plant the divisions 6 
inches deep, 3 to 4 feet apart in good gar- 
den soil. Pinch out the top of the plant 
when it has developed 8 leaves. Dig in fall 
after first hard frost. Store away in fruit 
cellar upside down. Cover with dry straw 
or peat moss. Divide the clumps in the 
spring. The price per dozen will be 10 
times the price of a single division. Six at
