LILIUM LIL-ee-um) LILY. Liliacaea. 
Most lilies are easily grown from seed and hardy in the North. They should be 
planted in a well prepared bed where no manure has been recently added. The ideal 
bed would be the one prepared a year before and covered with a mulch. Sand should 
be mixed with the soil for best results. Lilies can be quickly grown from bulbs, del- 
ivered in the fall or from seed which are not hard to grow. For growing from seed 
the species are divided into two groups according to the method used in germinating 
them: Those marked (A) are the quick germinating species and those marked (B) 
the following spring with no top growth the first year; transplant to the nursery row 
the 2nd or 3rd year. Those marked (B) sow in March or April outdoors or a month 
earlier indoors; they take about 3-6 weeks to germinate; carry the seedlings over the 
first year and transplant to the nursery rows the 2nd spring. There are other short 
cut methods which will be described in these coluumns from time to time.
