TSINGTAUENSE Somewhat resembles L. concolor, but is much 
more striking and vigorous. The broad rich green foliage grows 
in whorls around the stem as does the foliage of L. Hansonii. 
The individual blooms are a glossy nasturtium-red, upright, 
star-shaped with long fluted petals. This is one of the good 
new garden lilies, distinctive and adaptable. July. 3 feet. Plant 
6 to 7 inches. Each $2.25 Dozen $25.00 
UMBELLATUM (European garden hybrids) The so-called Flame, 
Candlestick or Torch Lily of our gardens. All bear umbels of 
upright, cup-shaped flowers in brilliant colors and nothing can 
compare with them when planted in groups in the border. They 
are of easiest culture, require no care and establish well, 
quickly forming good sized clumps. We list a group of dis- 
tinct color and habit. Late June. Plant 5 to 6 inches deep. 
Grandiflorum The common form, a brilliant orange-red spotted 
with deeper red. Height 2% feet. Each 50c Dozen $5.00 
Mahogany A showy form with a good head of mahogany-red 
blooms. 18 inches tall. Each $1.00 Dozen $10.50 
Satan. A new clone developed by the outstanding American 
specialist, Mr. George L. Slate, and offered last season for 
the first time. The plant grows to 214 feet, and bears up 
to four or five well-spaced blooms, a deep currant-red in 
color. One of our men, on seeing it for the first time said, 
“You couldn’t find anything redder than that, nor greener 
than that, no matter how hard you looked.” The individual 
blooms measure six inches across, with petals in their na- 
tural position — not forced to gain extra spread. We ex- 
pect this lily to replace all other deep red forms of L. um- 
bellatum as soon as stocks are more generous. It is a 
good grower and increases rapidly in the garden. Each $3.50 
Violet Niles Walker Mr. Louis Vasseur considers this his fin- 
est seedling. It is a clear unspotted lily of vivid persim- 
mon orange, with slightly deeper shading’s towards the cen- 
ter of the petals. The plant grows to 18 inches and bears 
from five to six wide-open blooms that measure six inches 
across. It holds its glowing color well in full sun or light 
shade and flowers at about the same time as W. N. Craig. 
Each $7.50 
W. N. Craig This fine hybrid by Mr. Louis Vasseur is a strik- 
ing and graceful plant carrying up to six blooms of a clear 
unspotted orange-yellow. The petals are slender and so 
well spaced that most forms of L. umbellatum seem coarse 
by comparison. It is a vigorous plant that grows 2 to 2% 
feet and is among the first of the umbellatum to flower. 
It is named in honor of the late Wm. N. Craig and was 
awarded the First Class Certificate of the Massachusetts 
Horticultural Society in in 1948. 
Each $2.50 Dozen $26.00
