Michell’s Hardy Garden lilies 
A garden is not complete without a planting of Hardy Lilies. They do exceedingly well in the herbaceous border. 
The varieties listed can be planted in the early spring months, and it is recommended that they be planted among 
hardy perennials, as the shade from the surrounding plants is necessary for their welfare. 
Cutrurat Directions. All Hardy Lilies should be planted from 6 to 10 inches deep. The bulbs should 
be completely enveloped in sand and no manure should come in contact with them, but may be placed 4 to 
6 inches underneath. All Joose-petaled bulbs should be planted on their sides instead of upright. Cover 
with leaves or litter during winter. 
Regal Lily - Lilium regale 
One of the finest garden Lilies introduced. 
On sturdy stems, 3 to 5 feet high, are pro- 
duced an abundance of large, beautiful flow- 
ers, the centers of which are flushed bright 
golden yellow, shading off to creamy white 
at outer edges. Externally the flowers are 
streaked with brown, shaded a delightful 
pearly tint. Should be planted in fall or early 
spring, 8 to 9 inches deep. Commences flow- 
ering in July. This variety has also been used 
for forcing with very good results.
