Hardy Lilies 
In order to give most types of Lilies the proper chance to 
establish themselves, so that they feel at home, and flower for 
us many years in succession, it is advisable to give them the 
protection of the shrubbery border or woodland. 
Incorporate peat moss to lighten heavy soils and fertilize 
with bone meal only. Never use manure and be very careful 
with chemical fertilizers. 
Plant at the prescribed depth and make certain of good 
drainage; envelop the bulbs in sharp sand. 
The right time to plant Lilies, like any other bulb, is, ais 
they are dormant in the Fall. They are delivered to you at that 
time, beginning with Lilium Candidum in August and ending 
_ with Lilium Speciosum in November. Lilies cannot be dug until 
they are dormant and even if delivered as late as December, 
they will give a good account of themselves. 
There are several varieties of Lilies which may be kept in 
cold storage over winter, for Spring planting, if this proves 
more convenient.
