PRESTON HYBRIDS A group of splendid hybrids by Miss Isabella 
Preston, the Canadian hybridizer, who has worked with lilies 
for years and to whom we are indebted for many fine garden 
plants. 
CORONATION One of Miss Preston’s most outstanding 
achievements. The plant grows to 3 feet tall, is upright 
and well leaved and bears up to twenty or more somewhat 
pendant recurved blooms of a clear primuline yellow lightly 
spotted brown. The exterior of the petals is also a clear 
pale yellow. Like all of Miss Preston’s hybrids this is a 
tested garden subject, of simple culture and vigorous habit. 
The color is completely delightful. Plant 6 to 8 inches. 
Each $2.75 Dozen $29.00 
HURRICANE An open pollinated seedling of L. Edna Kean. 
The inflorescence is arranged like a candelabrum with up- 
ward-facing, vase-shaped flowers. The color is deep blood- 
red. Because of its distinctive and charming shape and 
ease of culture this is one of Miss Preston’s most valuable 
contributions to the garden. Early July. Height 3 feet. 
Each $3.75 
SPITFIRE A companion plant to the above and identical in 
every respect except the color which is flame scarlet with 
some medium sized bay spots. Each $3.75 
STENOGRAPHER SERIES: 
BRENDA WATTS This is one of the very best garden lilies. 
It grows magnificently, establishes readily, and has a 
strong constitution. It is one of those happy garden sub- 
jects that knows its job and proceeds to do it thoroughly. 
Added to this is the bold and brilliant beauty of the plant 
itself — tall and graceful, bearing a long spike of outward- 
facing blooms, soft orange-red in color. For dignity of 
stature and a mass of sheer color in the July garden it is 
hard to surpass. Height 5 feet. Plant 6 to 8 inches. 
Each $1.50 Dozen $16.50 
EDNA KEAN Resembies L. Brenda Watts except for its color 
which is a deep cherry-red, a color almost unique among 
lhes. It does not have quite the magnificent constitution of 
Brenda Watts, but will hold its own in nine gardens out of 
ten. Each $1.50 Dozen $16.50 
LILLIAN CUMMINGS Another fine grenadine-red hybrid. An 
extremely vigorous lily and an asset to any collection. 
Each $1.50 Dozen $16.59 
PRINCEPS PINK A splendid group of trumpet lilies in which both 
the interior and reverse of the petals is variously stained with 
shades of pink. They were developed by Carleton Yerex and un- 
like the pink forms of L. regale and L. centifolium by Mr. 
Freimann, these have been selected in terms of an apple-blos- 
som. tone, rather than the deeper dramatic coloring of the Frei- 
mann seedlings. Each $3.00
