Lilies are indispensable to the garden and these are the ones which are 
hardiest and easiest grown. Many bloom in July and August, a boon to the 
border at that poor period of bloom. There are two general rules about 
growing lilies. The first: get them in the ground immediately. We deliver 
them in top condition—moist and healthy. Plant the day you receive them. 
The second rule: plant them on their sides in well-drained locations. If there 
is any doubt about drainage put a four-inch layer of coarse sand or fine 
gravel underneath them. Proper planting depth is important. We offer only 
the smaller sized bulbs because large ones travel badly, dry out quickly, 
suffer too much shock from moving and do not establish as quickly. 
THE MID-CENTURY HYBRIDS 
An entirely new group of hybrids developed by Jan de 
Graaff, the famous Oregon originator. They grow about 
two to four feet high, are tough in any climate, should 
be planted about 5-6 inches deep and be in well-drained 
soil. Neither descriptions nor pictures do them justice—we 
urge trying them.

Fireflame

July. 
Enchantment (Patent No. 862) Each $1.50; Three $4.00 
de Graaf describes this as the best hardy lily he has ever 
developed and others say it is the best lily origination of 
the century. We subscribe to both these remarks. Enchant- 
ment is a vibrant nasturtium-red with flowers lasting for 
weeks. Blooms late June or July on 4-foot stems. 
Bonanza 
GALANTHUS (Snow-drops) 
These charming white early-spring plants like a moist, cool 
soil. They do well in shade—under bushes, trees or along 
woodland paths. To get the desired effect plant about 
3 inches apart in groups of six or twelve. They remain a 
lifetime. 
Nivalis Maximus Six $1.15; Doz. $1.90 
Very large flowered. 
Nivalis Simplex Six 65c; Doz. $1.10 
Medium flowered. 
AMARYLLIS HYBRIDS 
These giant flowering hybrids will bloom for the rankest 
amateur. They can be grown either in the house or gar- 
den, but they are not hardy in our climate and if grown 
outdoors have to be dug before frost. Planted in a 
pot in winter they will bloom within six to eight weeks. 
(By keeping part of the bulbs dormant you can have a 
succession of bloom throughout the winter.) Plant them 
outdoors in March, April or May and they will bloom in 
July and August. Outdoor culture is easier than growing 
gladiolus. We can supply them from November through 
May but order early as the supply is limited. 
MAMMOTH DUTCH HYBRIDS

size bulbs only.
