New Hybrid Lilies 
Here’s probably the most startling offering of new hybrid lilies 
ever made. They are a major and sensational advance in the breed- 
ing of garden lilies, offering not only beauty but a degree of vigor, 
ruggedness and endurance almost unbelizvable. All have been 
given rigid tests under varying conditions and we believe they will 
prove themselves in practically all parts of the country. 
Most of them are of Tigrinum-Umbellatum parentage, selections 
from thousands of seedlings with careful regard to every factor 
that makes a good lily. They were produced by the Oregon Bulb 
Farms, almost in the shadows of Mt. Hood, in what is probably the 
largest lily hybridizing program ever made. 
These new hybrids are being introduced on a comparatively small 
scale and only a limited number of bulbs are available. We believe all 
of them have what it takes to be top ranking garden lilies. All will 
succeed under a wide variety of conditions but the better you pre- 
pare the soil and look after their simple needs, the more rewarding 
the results. They will tolerate full sun or partial shade, the latter 
preferred where summer suns are really hot. 
PAGODA-885-An upright, wide open lily with six to eight or more 
blooms well placed on the sturdy stems. They are orange-chrome or 
marigold-orange in color with a height of three to four feet or more. 
This lily seems to be a “’natural’’ for large flower arrangements. 
CAMPFIRE-886-Here’s a brilliantly rich, deep, fiery red lily. The 
few spots are maroon-red and hardly noticeable. Petals are rather 
narrow and pointed giving it a ‘‘different’’ and distinctive look. 
Height three to four feet. These upright lilies with their superior 
quality have a distinct place in the garden where they can produce 
mass color effects of great brilliance. 
ENCHANTMENT-88 7-Patented. (May be propagated commercially 
only under special license.) This is one of the most beautiful of all 
these new lilies. Its color is a vivid nasturtium-red, full of life and 
brilliance. It stands out prominently as far as the eye can see, an 
upright lily with many well formed blooms and excellent habits. It 
forms numerous bulbils in the leaf axils and has proven a fine seed 
parent. Many who have seen this lily in the field consider it one of 
the finest new lilies of the century.

PAGODA 
BONANZA-888-This is the fourth and last of the new upright 
lilies. It is a beautiful clean orange-yellow with very slight spotting. 
The blooms have a wonderful smooth texture, a real quality lily. 
Height three to four feet. 
FIREFLAME-889-This is a short, sturdy lily, ideal for the fore- 
ground in the hardy border or for growing in pots. The color is a 
solid mahogany-red, slightly spotted black or deep maroon. The 
blooms are neither upright nor pendant, but face outwards, looking 
straight at you. It is a large lily with broad heavily textured petals. 
It carries eight or more flowers to a head with the buds opening 
Meas quite a long period. Without question, this lily has a great 
uture. 
PARADE-890-Another outward facing lily, this one a rich yellow- 
Orange with a stripe of burnished gold down the center of each 
petal, and heavily spotted with minute black or maroon dots. A 
gorgeous lily with its horizontal flowers and wide petals making a 
gorgeous show. Its 12 to 15 or more flowers are well spaced with 
plenty of room for each one to develop fully. Parade sparkles in 
the sun; a great favorite with everyone who has seen it. 
SERENADE-891-This onz blooms a little later than the rest of the 
group, a good clean and clear orange. Height two to three feet 
with large outfacing blooms. An ideal lily for massing in the border 
or pot culture. It is a lily of fine proportions, stems very sturdy and 
like all the rest of this group, very resistant to ail lily diseases and 
pests. 
VAGABOND-892-A distinct salmon-orange of a most unusual 
shade. The enormous flower faces outward and its wide open bloom 
lights up the entire garden with its brilliance. In the trials this lily 
has taken highest honors. No description can do it justice. This 
whole group is so outstanding that mere words fail when we try 
adequately to portray their good qualities. Vagabond is a truly fine 
lily worthy of a place in any garden. 
VALENCIA-893-This is a lily with a lovely soft orange to rich 
yellow coloring, brilliant, clear and sparkling. The very large, flat 
opening flowers have a slight midrib of coppery gold and a few 
maroon dots spot the petals. Altogether it is a stunning flower, a 
worthy companion to the others on this page of ‘’NEW” lilies.
