Amabile Each 80c, Three $2.25, Doz. $8.00, 25 $15.50 
Brilliant grenadine-red flowers, nicely spotted with black, carried on 
strong, slender, 3-foot stems. Because of its very free flowering habit, 
few bulbs are needed to make a brilliant dash of color in the garden. 
Best suited as a bold accent group in the border, L. amabiie does well 
in full sun and will stand considerable drought. The intense color does 
not fade in direct sunlight. The bulbs are white, high crowned, and 
composed of relatively large scales. Plant 5 inches deep in light porous 
soils, shallower in clay and adobe. Stem roots are sparse or entirely 
lacking; basal roots heavy and contractile. Underground stem bulblets 
are formed in profusion, especially on the smaller stems. 
Canadense Each 35c, Three 90c, Doz. $3.00, 25 $5.60 
Broad, funnel-shaped, drooping flowers, vary:ng from yellow to orange; 
spotted inside; graceful and pretty. Fine among Azaleas, in damp peat 
beds, or leaf mold. Excellent for naturalizing. June-July flowering. 
Formosanum Giant Late Flowering Form 
Each 65c, Three $1.80, Doz. $6.50, 25 $12.00, 100 $45.00 
The latest flowering of all the popular Lilies, this white trumpet type is 
particularly desirable for gardening in moderate climates. The plants 
are often in flower as late as December in the mild sections of the 
country. Of easiest culture, this Lily should be in every garden. Our 
strain is tall and free flowering and has been grown from selected plants 
for several generations. The bulbs are very small, but should be planted 
5 to 6 inches deep since Formosanum produces very heavy stem roots. 
Full sun or partial shade suits it well and for better flower production 
if some water is provided during the hottest part of the summer, you 
you will be well rewarded for your trouble. 
Hansoni Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $14.50, 25 $28.00

more or less with brown; of a heavy waxy texture. June flowering.

established, and bearing more than 20 flowers of a rich, deep crange- 
yellow. Fine foliage. Does well in both light and heavy loam. August- 
September flowering.

i Maxwill (Hybrid) 
! A new hybrid, being a cross between 
| Lilium Leichtlini var. Maximowiczi X 
Lilium Willmottiae. In its general habit 
and pyramidal inflorescence this hybrid 
is similar to Lilium Willmottiae, but 
the blooms are lighter in color, the 
stamens are longer and the anthers are 
orange-red. The spike is tall and very 
strong, but gracefully slender, bearing 
as many as 30 or more large recurving 
flowers. Height 6 to 7 feet. Comes 
into flower in late July. A splendid 
Lily acclaimed by Lily specialists the 
world over. Free flowering and re- 
markably free from the ordinary Lily

ducing handsome flaring flowers which Lilium Giganteum 
are canary-yellow at the base with Hi es 
primrose-yellow petals showing only a imataicum 
very small margin of white at the tins

the connoisseur. Only a limited few bulbs available. 
Sargentiae Each 80c, Three $2.25, Doz. $8.00, 25 $15.50 
We offer the true form of this species which is interesting and valuable 
because of its habit of bearing stem bulbils in the axils of the leaves. 
The flowers are true trumpet shape, somewhat longer and more formal 
than the Centifoliums. Not so free flowering nor as tall as these trum- 
pets, it is none the less distinctive and particularly valuable where a 
perfectly uniform planting is desired. They respond to the same general 
culture as Centifolums but Sargentiae flowers later and extends the 
season another ten days to two weeks, flowering before the Philippinense 
Formosanums. Very reliable and with reasonable care will last for many 
years. 
Tigrinum Splendens Each 45c, Three $1.30, Doz. $4.50, 25 $8.25

General List of Htardy Lilies 
Bellingham Hybrid Lilies 
A strain of Lilies which has more than lived up to our hopes, since this 
group has proven the most desirable for cut flower purposes and informal 
or woodland planting. Ideally spaced on tall, slender, straight stems, the 
flowers are particularly long lasting. The pyramidal flower heads, bearing 
up to 20 flowers, may be cut as the first buds open and will remain fresh 
until the entire spike is in bloom. The color range is complete from clear 
yellow through the yellow-oranges to the bright orange-reds with scarlet 
tipped petals. Most of the flowers are interestingly spotted with brown 
or reddish brown. 
Ideal for partial or light shade, they prefer a cool, light soil. They are 
at their best when left undisturbed since the bulbs divide and branch rapidly 
to form large clumps. Plant 5 inches deep in ordinary soils. 
Mixed Colors Only Each 75c, Three $2.00, Doz. $7.50, 25 $15.00 
Gresta Hybrid GEiltes 
A Magnificent and Brilliantly Cclored Race of New Lilies 
This new race of seedlings has neatly reflexed flowers, nicely spaced on 
thin, wiry stems. Resulting from crosses between L. Davidi (L. Willmottiae) 
and related types they are one of the brightest patches of color in our Lily 
fields during July. The colors range from bright yellow through orange to 
a beautiful dark rich red. The latter color is new to this type of Lily. Most 
cf the flowers are of the typical recurved Turk’s cap shape and many of 
the plants have blooms facing outward or somewhat upward with the petals 
only slightly recurved. A sun-loving group, plant them 5 to 6 inches deep 
where they will get plenty of direct sunlight. Propagation is most rapid 
from tne numerous underground stem bulblets which may be separated from 
the old stem in the fall and replanted near the mother bulb. This group 
has proven a wonderful addition to the garden Lilies. Excellent cut flowers, 
the stems are easy to handle and arrange, and the colors are particularly 
a Uieuys indoors. Award of Merit, Massachusetts Horticultural Society, 
Mixed Colors Only Each 90c, Three $2.50, Doz. $9.75 
Unmbellatum Elegans TFkybrid 
Flamingo 
A vigorous, upright-flowering Lily with very dark green, glossy foliage 
and enormously large, wide-petaled flowers of great substance. The 
color, as the name indicates, is a soft flamingo-pinkish-orange, a most 
pleasing blend that fits in well with other early summer flowers. Forcing 
tests have indicated that Flamingo can be flowered under glass in late 
February and March. 
Each $1.50 
Talisman 
Hybrid Tigrinum Wilimottiae and Umbellatum 
A gorgeously orange tinted, nicely spotted Lily which is so prolific that 
from a few bulbs you can raise a large quantity in a few years. All the 
way up and down the stem bulbils grow in the axils of the leaves. These, 
when planted in September, will flower the following year. The stems -are 
tall, 4 to 5 feet, on top of which grows a cluster of lovely, nodding flowers 
with gracefully reflexing petals in July. Does equally well in light shade
