CANDIDUM— (Madonna or St. Joseph’s Lily) 
Waxy white, sweet-scented, broadly funnel-shaped flowers with yellow 
anthers are freely produced during June and early July atop strong 
stems 2 to 4 ft. tall. Individual flowers measure 3 to 4 in. long and fully _ 
as wide. In addition to being known as Madonna or St. Joseph’s Lily, it. 
is also known as Annunciation, Lent or Bourbon Lily. Very popular; 
easily grown. Likes full sun but will endure light shade. Candidum lilies 
usually produce top growth before cold weather sets in. This growth 
need not be protected during the winter except in very-cold localities. 
Do not use any heavy material that will pack down and smother the 
plant. Loose straw placed around the plant is the most desirable,
