LILIUM SPECIOSUM 
SPECIOSUM Oregon Giant—782-This is the most popular of all the 
Speciosums we offer and deservedly so. Its blooms are large, freely 
produces, the petals are broad, the form and color are exceptionally 
fine, all in all, it tops the list and as more ample stocks are avail- 
able, it will be even more popular. In general it is the Punctatum 
type, white with pink blotches and spots. You would call it a pink 
lily and simply fall in love with it. Long lived, vigorous and 
healthy, it thrives most anywhere. Our reports on Oregon Giant 
from down Texas way are most gratifying. It seems to be an extra 
good lily in the south. Height 3 to 5 feet. PD 6 in. Stocks are 
more ample than last year but not unlimited. Early orders are 
advised.

flowers. The bright orange blooms suffused yellow with red tips and 
maroon spots are spectacular, true Turk’s Cap form. Sturdy stems

Lilium Speciosum 
For all around satisfaction, these lilies would probably top any list. 
Not only exquisitely beautiful, they thrive in the average garden 
without special effort. In soil well prepared and containing ample 
humus, they are long lived, growing vigorously for many years. 
Speciosums do not like a hot dry soil. In a cool moist soil (per- 
fectly possible with good drainage, humus and a ground cover 
planting), they will reward you handsomely. Partial shade from hot 
sun prolongs their flowering period. Speciosums are easily the 
highlight of the late summer garden. 
SPECIOSUM Magnificum—779-This and Melpomene are the most 
brilliantly colored of the species. Magnificum is heavily toned with 
deep ruby-carmine and spotted crimson, the darkest colored of all. 
For border display, three or six of them make a truly spectacular 
show. This and the other Speciosums all show off better against a 
dark green background. August into September.

SPECIOSUM Kratezeri-775—An extra choice variety, white with a 
pale green stripe in the center of each petal, brown anthers and the 
exterior tinged green. Truly it’s a delightful lily. The frilly, re- 
curved and pendant blooms are like sparkling crystal. Sturdy stems, 
3 to 4 feet, carry up to twenty blooms when well established. Give 
each bulb plenty of room when planting as they make large clumps, 
sometimes four feet in diameter. Fill in among them with companion 
plants until they begin to make large clumps. The white forms espe- 
cially, should have a green background to appear at their best.

SPECIOSUM Album-Novum-—/774—-This scarce and very rare lily is 
an exceptionally beautiful form of this species, pure white with 
yellow anthers and broad massive petals of great substance not as 
recurved as most speciosums. Too, it is a week to two weeks later 
in flowering than the rest, making it especially welcome to extend 
the season of these choice lilies. Height, culture and planting depth 
are the same as the rest. Anyone who loves truly fine lilies will 
consider this a must. 3 for $9.75, each $3.50, Doz. $38.50

the throat. As the bloom ages it becomes lilac-purple. Fragrant. 
Plant in a loose gravelly soil, with plenty of leaf mold, partial shade 
and PERFECT drainage. Generally takes a year to establish itself 
after planting. PD 5 in. Ht. 3 to 6 ft. June-July.
