LILIES 
No flower garden is complete without the Lilies. Because of their sheer beauty, blooming 
season and value also as cut flowers they are unsurpassed as perennial subjects. Those we offer 
here are of easiest culture and will provide flowers throughout the summer months. 
CULTURE: THE LILIES offered in this catalogue are all of easiest culture and very disease 
resistant with the exception of Sargentiae and Formosanum which are susceptible to mosaic. 
However, by planting these two away from the other Lilies they can be as permanent as any. 
Plant the bulbs about 6 inches deep in loam or clay soils, a tittle deeper in light sandy soil. 
Always bear in mind that sharp drainage is the most essential requirement for th2 successful 
growing of the Lilies we offer. All will bloom in shade but the strongest plants and most flowers 
are obtained when planted in full sun. During very hot weather afternoon shade will prolong 
the life of the blooms. All are quite hardy and require about the same moisture as the other 
perennials in your garden. 
SHIPMENT: Fall to January |.
