Hybrid Aura tum Lilies 
(Gold-Banded Lily) 
One of the outstanding offerings for this agutumn is the Hybrid Lilium 
Auratum. Blooms of Auratum Lily bulbs formerly only imported from Japan 
showed considerable variation. Seed saved from these varying forms and 
grown in this country, produced bulbs which are not only free from Lily 
diseases but produce flowers of astounding beauty and great variations. In 
fact, many are so different and beautiful as to defy comparison. If you have 
grown and known the Auratum Lily you will be astounded to see the great 
beauty of the Hybrid Auratum. The bulbs offered are healthy and have al- 
ready bloomed in the nursery. These require no more care than any other 
Lily and will give you many years of enjoyment.

Lilium Candidum 
Aurelian Hybrid Lilies 
These hybrids are the result of crosses between Henryi, Sargentiae 
and Sulfureum and vary in shape from short trumpet shaped, bowl 
shaped, to those with widely flaring and recurving petals. Cream tinted 
with yellow and apricot centers; some light yellow with apricot centers, 
all superbly beautiful. Only a limited number of bulbs are available. 
Here again the Henryi blood in this strain has made it strong and vig- 
orous, 
Sunburst Hybrids Each $2.50 
This group is made up of the flowers which most 
closely resemble Lilium Henryi in shape. They are 
much larger and more reflexed than those of Henryi 
and the colors include white, cream-yellow and or- 
ange. The flowers are of unusual texture and sub- 
stance. Strong growers aind permanent. 
Each $2.50 
Heart’s Desire Hybrids 
This selection is almost intermediate in shape between 
the trumpet form and the Lilium Henryi shape. They 
are essentially shallow, widely flared and bowl shaped 
in shades of white, cream and yellow-orange. Many 
of them have a bright orange throat shading to 
cream-yellow at tips of the petals. All are strong 
growers and will form permanent groups.

One of the prides of our Lily stocks is this new strain of Madonna Lilies 
we have been slowly developing for the past several years. Careful 
selection and pollination has finally produced a race of the Madonna 
Lily with large flowers of unusual texture and form. They will produce 
exhibition spikes the first year. They increase rapidly by natural divi- 
sion and will soon form a large clump. Bulbs we send will measure 6 
Or more inches in circumference.
