WESTMINSTER, MARYLAND 29 
L. SPECIOSUM ALBUM — The highly prized white 
form of L. speciosum rubrum, somewhat smaller and 
less robust than the type. It is, however, not difficult 
to grow. Our stocks have been free from basal rot 
and mosaic infections so prevalent among imported 
bulbs, which have in the past been largely responsible 
for the frequent failures with this Lily. Flowering 
ten days to two weeks later than the red form, it is 
one of the loveliest of cut flowers. Light shade is 
necessary in warmer climates to prevent the blooms 
from burning and opening too rapidly. $1.00 each; 
$9.00 per 10. 
L. SPECIOSUM RUBRUM, RED CHAMPION—A va- 
riety of the red showy Lily of Japan. Grand for gar- 
den decorations, cut flowers or pot culture in a cool 
greenhouse. Our strain is uniform, disease free and 
vigorous. The foundation stock was discovered on 
the slopes of Mount Hood, where it had grown undis- 
turbed for some forty years. A situation in well- 
drained soil where it can receive light shade during 
the hottest part of the day is the main requirement. 
The heavy basal roots make fall growth and conse- 
quently it may require a year to become well estab- 
lished. The smaller bulbs suffer less shock in trans- 
planting and are recommended for general garden 
purposes. Plant the bulbs 6 inches deep. Blooms in 
late August and early September. 80c each; $7.00 
per 10; $65.00 per 100. 
L. TENUIFOLIUM (PUMILUM)—tThe Coral Lily, an- 
other of Dr. Wilson’s introductions from the Orient, 
is one of the most easily grown and most popular 
Lilies in this country. On thin, wiry stems seldom 
more than 2 feet tall, numerous bright scarlet or 
lacquer-red flowers are borne in June. They are 
small and dainty and always attract favorable com- 
ment. Preferring full sun and a well-drained loca- 
tion, it is perfectly at home in the rock garden or 
planted in groups in the hardy border. Stem root- 
ing; plant 4 inches deep. $1.50 per 10; $12.50 per 100.

ingly brilliant in color and excellent for cutting. They 
like to be planted about 6 inches deep in a cool, moist
