A CASCADE MADONNA LILY 
_Tall Straight Stems and Extra Large Flowers 
One of the prides of our lily stocks is this new strain which 
has been developed over several years. It is unusual in that it 
sets seed freely and pos- : 
sesses a vigor far surpass- 
ing others, The foundation 
of this hybrid was an exten- 
sive collection of all forms 
of Madonna Lilies, includ- 
ing some unusual French 
types. Careful selection and 
pollination has produced 
Cascade, with its tall 
straight stems and large 
flowers of unusual texture 
and perfect form. The first 
great improvement over L. 
candidum, the oldest lily in 
cultivation. Blooming size 
bulbs available September
