Select List Hardy Lilies 
Most lilies require well-drained soil. Some 
shade on the ground is very good but the sun is 
needed around the upper plant. The soil should 
be fibrous and rooty; some leaf mold or peat 
should be added. Plant one foot apart. Charcoal 
and sulphur sprinkled in planting helps to ward 
off worm attacks and blue mold. We offer large, 
blooming size bulbs. Our bulbs will be sent at

grown in Oregon and Washington, Lily bulbs can
