Burpee’s Hardy Garden Lilies 
REGAL LILY—(Lilium regale) 
Gorgeous, bell-shaped, white, sweet-scented flowers with a 
touch of canary-yellow in the throat and a shading of lilac- 
pink on the outside. Clusters of blooms at the top of tall, 
wiry stems during July. One of the most beautiful and easiest 
grown of all lilies, the individual flowers measure about 6 in. 
in length and 4% to 5 in. across. Grow 3 to 5 ft, high. 
7242 EXTRA LARGE BULBS These will produce many 
more flowers per plant the first year than the large bulbs. 
50¢ each; 3 for $1.35; 12 for $5.00; 25 for $8.75 
7249 LARGE BULBS Shorter spikes with fewer flowers 
than the above—the size preferred by many for the largest 
number of flower spikes at low cost. At these low prices, a 
splendid opportunity is afforded you to plant this beautiful 
hardy garden lily in quantity. More floriferous with age. 
SPECIAL: 5 for $1.00; 12 for $2.25; 100 for $18.00
