3 LILIES FROM SEED 
Lilies are fairly easy from seed, if cultural key letter direc- 
tions be followed. See catalogue page 1 for key letter explana- 
tions. Use “kt” culture for all Lilies save the few kinds that 
we mention as being tender. These tender kinds need “‘w” 
culture. 
AURATUM—(8-4)60. The Great 
Gold-banded Lily. Big flowers 
with wide, white petals, each 
petal centered with a golden 
stripe, often with roseate dotting. 
Illustrated opposite. Seed-grown 
stock is quite long-lived. Pkt. 25c 3; 
Ye oz. 40c; 1% oz. T5c. 
AURATUM EXTRA HARDY— 
Selected from a strain found 
growing in the extreme north 
of Japan, this stock is claimed 
to show high resistance to win- 
ter damage in cold climates. 
i New growth starts later in the 
spring, yet blossoming begins 
about two weeks earlier than 
with the regular Auratum. Also 
7. 
the plants are somewhat shorter, though the flowers are large. 
Pkt. 40c; 8 pkts. for $1.10; 10 for $3.00 (customer limit). 
AURATUM DISEASE-RESISTANT STRAIN—Seeds saved 
from a clone of Auratum that seems fully resistant to mosaic 
disease. Auratum is naturally a long-lived lily. It is simply 
the prevalence of mosaic in so many stocks of it that has 
caused it to be thought of short life-duration. This mosaic- 
resistant strain should make Auratum as easy, and enduring, 
as Regale. Pkt. 60c; 3 pkts. for $1.70; 10 pkts. (customer 
limit) for $5.00. 
BELLINGHAM HYBRIDS—(3)60. Superb hybrid strain of 
west coast Lilies with long-lasting flowers that range from 
clear yellow, through golden orange, to red-orange, often with 
scarlet-tipped petals. Many will be spotted red-brown. Blossoms 
mostly recurved. Pkt. 35c; 3 pkts. for $1.00. 
CONCOLOR—(2)28. The vividly colorful, cheerful, Red Star 
Lily. Upfacing flowers of brilliant vermilion. None easier; 
none gayer. Sometimes blooms first year from seed. Pkt. 25c; 
4g oz. 45c; % oz. 80c. 
DA VIDI—(3)40. A quick Lily of much beauty. The willowy, 
graceful stems are loaded with charming blossoms in a shade 
between apricot and cinnabar. Pkt. 25c; 46 oz. 45c. 
DAVURICUM WILSONI—(2-3)50. A tall strain, with un- 
usually large, vase-shaped flowers of deep apricot orange. 
Showy. Pkt. 30c; 3 for 80c. 
FORMOSANUM — (8)50. Wilson’s 
Variety. An exceedingly easy, and 
altogether lovely Lily that will often 
give some bloom first year from 
seed. Hardy in Maine. The long trum- 
pets may be of purest snowy white 
or again white with delightful rosy 
suffusions. Pkt. 20c; Ye oz. 80c; %

FORMOSANUM PRICE’S VARIETY 
—(3)25. Alpine race, blooming about 
two months earlier than the regular . 
Formosanum. Pkt. 35c; 3 for $1.00. 
FORMOSANUM INTERMEDIATE—In both season and height 
it comes between the Price and the Wilson strains, intermedi- 
ate in both respects. The three give a long continuous season. 
Pkt. 25c; Ye oz. 40c; % oz. 75c; % oz. $1.20. 
FORMOSANUM WHITE SELECTION—(3)40. Selected to 
give trumpet flowers of purest whiteness, without suffusion 
of other color. At the same time selection has been made 
of form and size, in the endeavor to build a uniform strain 
of highest value for cutting. Comes pretty true from seed.

soms in rich honey-amber. An occasional seedling may throw 
red flowers. Pkt. 25c; Ye oz. 45c; % oz. 80c.
