3 THE TRUE LILIES 
Lilies are fairly easy from seed, if cultural key letter direc- 
tions be followed. See catalogue page 1 for key letter explana- 
tions. Use “kt” culture for all Lilies save the few that we 
mention as tender. These tender kinds need ‘“‘w’” culture.

ting. There can be no hand- 
somer Lily than a well-grown 
stock of Auratum. Illustrated 
opposite. Most of the seed we 
offer was grown on our Old 
Orchard Nursery. By the way, 
seed-grown bulbs of Auratum 
are much longer-lived than the 
scale-grown imported ones. Pkt.
