L. AURATUM ESPERANZA NAMED VARIETIES The Esperanza Lily 
Gardens have in recent years—they have since discontinued the 
practice—selected and named a few of their seedlings because of 
their unusually attractive characteristics and coloring. From clones 
which they have supplied us we have propagated a number of 
these named varieties, 
GOLD The color of the gold rib is diffused over the entire flower. 
GREEN TREASURE The base color of the flower is glass green 
to sea foam. 
PASTEL Soft flowing colors. 
RED Predominant red coloring. 
SPECTACULAR Heavily marked or maculated flowers. 
L. AURATUM PAULINE TUFFERY Propagated by the celebrated 
New Zealand hybridist and grower, Mr. L. Tuffery, this especially 
notable named variety of the species, impressive because of its 
great pyramid of crimson flowers, is currently under observation 
by the Royal Horticultural Society of England and may well receive 
its Award of Merit. Our stock is a propagation from a clone obtained 
from Mr. Tuffery. 
L. AURATUM PLATYPHYLLUM A larger flowering variety than the 
type and hardier. 
L. AURATUM VIRGINALE White in color and gold spotted. 
L. AURELIANENSE CARL YEREX’ INTRODUCTIONS The distin- 
guished Oregon specialist has originated these first class hybrids. 
They are noted for their yellow coloring. They are called Aurelian, 
after the Roman name of Orleans, France, native city of M. Debras, 
the French hybridist, who developed a cross of this nature, namely 
the white trumpet L. SARGENTIAE (which see) with L. HENRYI 
(which see) in 1928. These are our own vegetative propagations 
from bulbs obtained from Mr. Yerex. Plant them in good garden 
soil of open texture, 6-7” deep. 
L. AURELIAN CORONA HYBRIDS Recurving flowers in pastel 
shades, stems up to 8’, July-Aug. 
L. AURELIAN GOLDEN TRUMPETS A long yellow trumpet on 
5-6’ stems, July-Aug. 
L. AURELIAN SUPERBA HYBRIDS Broadly open flowers, sim- 
ilar to L. AURATUM, in shades from white, to cream, buff 
and yellow, July-Aug. 
L. BELLINGHAM HYBRIDS (See also L. SHUKSAN) A vigorous 
group of lilies attaining a height of 4-5’, blooming in June-July, 
obtained by crossing the western American native L. HUMBOLDTII 
with two of its near neighbors, L. PARDALINUM and L. PARRYI. 
The flowers range from yellow to red or a combination of both, 
spotted with dark brown or black and are turk’s cap in form. Plant 
5-6” deep. 
L. BROWNII A rare and appealing white trumpet lily from Asia, 
blooming in July. Height 3-342’. Give it a humus laden soil and 
plant 6-7” deep. 
L. BULBIFERUM HYBRIDS Crosses of the well-known European, 
red, cup shaped lily, with many variations in color from red, 
developed by Mr. Tuffery of New Zealand. Will grow from 15” 
to 5’, blooms in June-July. Wants good garden soil. Plant 4-5” 
deep.
