MISCELLANEOUS HARDY LILIES 
Hardy Lilies should be grown cool and given 16 to 18 weeks from 
time of planting to bring them into bloom, so the best results can be 
obtained; in fact, if you can give them longer to come into flower it is 
better. Where they are forced with plenty of heat, the result is that 
you get good foliage with not so many early blooms.
