Lilies for Every Garden 
Culture: Detailed Cultural Instructions Will Be Included with 
Every Lily Order 
Lilies, unlike most other bulbs, resent disturbance at any time and deteriorate steadily when 
kept out of the ground. Also, lilies possess, in addition to the cluster of fleshy scales which 
comprise the bulb, a system of live roots attached to the bulb base just like any other perennial. 
No gardener would be foolish enough to remove all the roots from a perennial phlox or delphinium 
before planting it in the garden. Likewise the live roots attached to a lily bulb should never be 
removed or allowed to die before planting if maximum results are desired. With exception of 
some imported stocks all lily bulbs we use for filling orders will arrive with attached live roots. 
This advantage guarantees our customers maximum vitality at planting time so necessary to get 
any plant or bulb off to a good start in a new garden. 
Time of Shipment: Late October to Early April (Unless Noted 
Otherwise) 
Most lilies may be planted in fall or early spring with equally good results. The only requirement 
is that the bulbs are properly cared for during the winter months. We have ideal facilities for 
winter storage and can supply vigorous fresh bulbs any time from October to early April. Please 
indicate when you would prefer shipment and we'll ship as near that date as possible.
