dry corner of the border where they will flourish and 
flower freely with a minimum of care. June flower- 
ing, height 2/4 to 4 feet. 
per 1000, 4-6’’, $300.00; 6-8'’, $400.00 
L.‘‘Green Mountain Hybrids’’— This group resulted 
from seed obtained from the collection of Dr. L. 
Horsford Abel. It was originally a mixture of his 
finest selected white trumpets, including such forms 
as: L. princeps ‘‘George C. Creelman,’’ L. princeps 
“Shelburne Hybrid,’’ L. ‘‘Crow’s Hybrids’’ and L. 
centifolium. Re-selection of these in an effort to fix 
* the character of unusual size of flower, combined 
with a green coloring of the throat and the brown 
shaded exterior of the petals has resulted in an im- 
pressive group of trumpet lilies. Quite distinct in 
shape and color from our Olympic hybrids, they are 
definitely a superior group of plants, particularly 
valuable for exhibition and specimen planting as 
well as being a magnificent cut flower. They require 
the same cultural treatment as the Olympic Hybrids 
and are at their best when planted in very light 
shade, where their unusual coloring can be seen to 
their best advantage. 
per 1000, 6-8’, $250.00; 8-10’’, $400.00 
L. hansoni—A golden-yellow lily from Japan, with 
reflexed, pendant flowers of great substance, it is 
still rare in home-grown quality and hence rather ex- 
pensive at present. Its main value lies in the fact 
that it crosses readily with L. martagon types to 
produce beautifully colored and spotted garden 
lilies. It is one of the hardiest lilies known, with 
deep green, glossy foliage in numerous whorls around 
the stem. From five to ten large flowers per stem. 
It does best in partial shade. 
per 1000, 5-7’’, $500.00; 7-9’', $750.00 
L. henryi—This grand lily from central China is 
now the center of attention in the lily world as the 
parent of the Aurelian hybrids. Yet, in its own right, 
it is a beautiful garden lily which should not be 
overlooked. The stems grow from five to eight feet 
tall, are of a purplish brown coloring and thickly 
covered with shining, dark green, pointed leaves. It 
~ flowers inlate August for us with as manyas twenty 
or more golden orange, recurved and pendant flowers. 
It is a stem-rooter and likes slight shade. Since the 
tall, wiry stems bend with the wind and rain this 
lily is atits best when supported by stakes or shrub- 
bery. 
per 1000, 6-8’’, $200.00; 8-10’’, $300.00 
L. ‘‘Hollywood Hybrids’’—This entirely new strain 
of hybrid lilies, offered by us for the first time last 
year, is the result of intercrossing the Preston Hy- 
brids with some of our Mid-Century Hybrids. Since 
the latter are the result of crossing L. tigrinum with 
various upright flowering lilies, the strain is thus 
further modified by the admixture of L. davidi and L. 
concolor. The entirely new ‘‘break’’ that resulted, 
gave us new star-shaped lilies, some of which re- 
semble giant L. concolor but with immense, hybrid 
vigor, large flowers and tall, dark brown stems. 
Again, as in the Mid-Century group, there are seed- 
lings with pendant and outward-facing flowers. 
For the present we are confining the name 
“‘Hollywood Hybrids’’ to the star-shaped, upright- 
flowering types. We offer these Hollywood Hybrids 
Mixed in good flowering size at $400.00, per 1000 
** Jubilee’ 
A sister seedling of ‘‘Meteor’’, warmer in color 
and with larger flowers. The wiry, dark stems 
rise to a height of from five to seven feet, bear- 
ing dark green, glossy leaves in large numbers, 
nicely spaced. Floweringsize bulbs. each, $6.00 
‘*Meteor’’ 
Bright cherry-red describes the color better than 
any other hue; the flowers are star-shaped and 
face outward and up. Meteor is remarkable for its 
brightness and its long wiry stem and its beauti- 
ful proportions and poise. Only actual photographs 
could begintodo it justice. Flowering size bulbs. 
each, $4.00 
“‘Roseanna McCoy’’ 
A bright orange, upright-flowering lily with from 
six to ten lovely star-shaped flowers per stem. 
The color -is undoubtedly derived from L. con- 
color and this nice lily might well be described 
as a giant Concolor with hybrid vigor. It is es- 
pecially recommended for cutting and for the 
larger herbaceous borders. Flowering size. 
each, $2.00 
L. japonicum—A beautifully shaped, elegant trum- 
pet lily of most refined coloring and habit. From one 
to five, fragrant, funnel-shaped flowers, borne on 
thin and wiry stems. We grow this lily from seed in 
a humus-filled sandy loam and it seems to thrive 
under those conditions. Color intensity varies from 
almost white to purplish-pink. We offer our Oregon- 
grown stock in good flowering size. 
per 1000, 4-5’’, $400.00; 5-6’’, $500.00 
L. longiflorum—variety ‘‘Croft’’—A pure white, 
short-stemmed Easter lily which has been the sub- 
ject of much wild speculation during the recent war 
years. It is a greenhouse and florist flower and has 
i merit for forcing in pots. It is not a garden 
ily. 
per 1000, 6-7’, $160.00; 7-8’, $250.00; 8-9’’, $320.00 
L. longiflorum—variety ‘‘Estate’’—A tall form of 
L. longiflorum, and for that reason better suited for
