GIGANTEUM HIMALIACUM (India) The most noble of all lilies. 
It grows from 10 to 12 feet tall and bears a spike of long, white, 
sweetly fragrant trumpet flowers shaded purple on the exterior. 
A beautiful thing that once seen can never be forgotten. Not a 
difficult lily to grow but it does have special requirements — 
partial shade, preferably an open glade in the woodlands, and 
protection from strong winds. Drainage is essential but there 
must be moisture too. When planting dig a hole 2 feet deep and 
2 feet wide and fill in with well-rotted manure and leaves, good 
loam and sand, and always leave the top of the bulb exposed 
or level with the surface of the ground. DON’T BURY IT. This 
species is perfectly hardy but should be mulched in colder parts 
of the country. 
The bulb is large and flowers but once. When it has flowered it 
should be lifted and discarded but the numerous offsets should 
be removed and replanted so that they can grow on to flower- 
ing size. We offer this species in large bulbs intended to bloom 
next season and in several sizes of smaller bulbs to follow in 
subsequent years.

GREEN BUSH HYBRIDS One of the most varied and interesting 
groups of plants to come to the fore for many years. They were 
developed by W. C. Horsford and are so interbred that it is im- 
possible to give exact parentage. The blooms may be pendant, 
outward facing, or upright; and size as well as coloring vary 
equally. They are selected, however, as dominantly yellow. 
Some are pale lemon, others clear butter or pumpkin yellow. 
Some are overlaid with crimson like a Talisman rose while 
others are stained with rich copper. A few show traces of L. 
cernuum origin in violet staining at the tips of the petals or 
in the throat. It is not possible to offer selected colors or shapes 
— but all are interesting and attractive. Stocks limited. 
Each $1.50 Dozen $16.50
