Lilium 
Candidum 
“CASCADE STRAIN” 
The glowing reports on this improved form of 
the ancient Madonna indicate it is good all over 
the land. See picture page 2. 
This strain, grown from seed right here in Ore- 
gon, is vigorously healthy and blooms with un- 
imagined freedom. Not finicky as to soils, they 
even tolerate heavy clay where all others fail. 
Full sunshine preferred though light shade is 
acceptable. 
Plant very shallow with only an inch of soil over 
the top of the bulb. Early planting is important 
so that top growth can take plac2 in the fall. As 
they mature early, shipping begins in August. 
We are usually almost sold out by early Septem- 
ber. If you order late, please indicate substitutes. 
Candidum, the Madonna Lily, the lily of antiq- 
uity, is lovely indeed. You'll never want to be 
without it once its beauty graces your garden. 
Always plant in groups of three or more for the 
best effect. June blooming. Ht. 4 to 6 ft.
