And tell what is there enjoyed, 
All men would to my gardens throng, 
And leave the cities void.”

PARRYiI-—600-One of the loveliest of all native 
American lilies. The delightfully fragrant 
blooms are funnel-shaped with slightly re- 
flexed tips, a pleasing lemon-yellow with a 
few faint purple-brown spots. Like many of 
the native species, Parryi is not easy to make 
feel at home in the garden. However, it is 
so lovely that a little extra effort is more 
than worth while. Grows in full sun or part 
shade but requires a soil well filled with 
humus and always moist but well drained.

L. NEPALENSE—GREENISH-YELLOW 
NEPALENSE-5 70-A very rare and ‘‘different’”’ 
lily from Burma. The broad funnel-shaped 
trumpets are greenish-yellow to white, with 
throats deeply splashed and stained wine- 
purple. Though long considered tender, Ore- 
gons ‘48-'49 winter down to zero did not 
harm them. Nepalense demands a leaf mold 
soil, perfect drainage, part shade and a 
ground cover. A lily for the connoisseur who 
wants the ‘‘different and unusual’. July. Ht.
