U. S. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE INTRODUCTIONS (available 1953) 
In the autumn of 1951, the Agricultural Research Administration of 
the Department made available to commercial growers for dissemi- 
nation a group of extremely valuable and beautiful new lilies which 
should be ready to go into the country’s gardens, at all events in 
small quantities, in the autumn of 19538. As one of the nurseries 
selected for the distribution of these unusually desirable and im- 
pressive flowers, STRAWBERRY HILL is privileged to offer the 
following: 
L. BELTSVILLE HYBRIDS These are seedlings obtained by a 
series of crosses between L. AURATUM AND L. SPECIOSUM. 
The flowers of these seedlings, each varying a little one from the 
other, are very much like L. SPECIOSUM in form, but are 
very much larger. They are pink in color and have been described 
by specialists as among the most beautiful of all lilies. 
L. MAXIMOWICZIT GROUP (See L. MAXIMOWICZII WADAITI) 
Aside from the general vigor, desirability of growth habit and 
attractiveness of the flowers, this group of new hybrids offers 
a long season of bloom, from July to frost, virtually making it 
indispensable for one who is fond of lilies. 
ALPHA An early flowering seedling, growing to about 4’, soon 
making a good sized clump of stems and bulbs. 
BETA Reaches 6-7’ and produces more flowers per stem. 
GAMMA Flowers two weeks later than BETA. The bloom is a 
darker red-orange, and the growth is intermediate between 
the two above. 
DELTA Flowers somewhat later than the others. 
L. MYRIOPHYLLUM x L. HAVEMEYER GROUP Hybrid trum- 
pets with stronger yellow coloring than the first name parent 
(see L. SULPHUREUM). They give a succession of bloom in 
the following order: 
SHASTA 
BAKER 
ADAMS 
L. WARDII Very fragrant and pink, with tightly reflexed petals, this 
delightful Asiatic member of the genus flowers in July-Aug. on 5’ 
atiee and wants a light garden loam laden with humus. Plant 
3” deep.
