GENERAL LIST OF LILIES 
L. AURATUM PLATYPHYLLUM — As nearly free 
from virus as any Lilies of this type will ever be. 
This is the Golden-rayed Lily of Japan, with great, 
fragrant, waxy white, bowl-shaped, horizontal blooms, 
golden-streaked and often crimson-spotted. Flowers 
in August and September. Needs full sun and a 
rich, well-drained soil. Bulbs should be planted from 
5 to 7 inches deep. Healthy American-grown bulbs. 
85c¢ each; $7.50 per 10; $70.00 per 100. 
L. ESTATE—A magnificent Lily for midsummer. Extra 
large, pure white flowers freely produced on 4-foot 
stems. Plant the bulbs 6 to 8 inches deep in average 
soil. 40c each; $3.00 per 10; $25.00 per 100. 
L. FORMOSANUM — The latest flowering of all the 
popular Lilies, this white trumpet type is especially 
desirable for moderate climates. The plants are 
often in flower as late as September. Of easiest cul- 
ture, this Lily should be in every garden. Our strain 
is tall and free flowering. The bulbs should be 
planted 5 to 6 inches deep, since Formosanum pro- 
duces very heavy stem roots. Full sun or partial 
shade suits it well, and for better flower production 
some water should be provided in summer. 40c each; 
$3.00 per 10; $25.00 per 100. 
L. MARTAGON ALBUM—tThe pure white form of the 
long-cultivated Martagon Lily. The dainty, waxy 
flowers are gracefully placed and form a symmetrical 
pyramid on 4-foot stems. One of the most perma- 
nent of all Lilies, once it is happily settled it will in- 
crease from year to year. It should be planted not 
deeper than 4 inches in a well-drained, sunny loca- 
tion. Best grown among low evergreen shrubs, it is 
equally useful in the cottage garden or estate wood- 
land. 65c each; $5.50 per 10. 
L. HENRYI—tThis species from Central China is a 
beautiful garden Lily. The purplish brown stems 
grow 5 to 8 feet tall and are thickly covered with 
shining, dark green, pointed leaves. It blooms in 
late July and August, with 20 or more golden orange, 
recurved and pendant flowers. It is a stem-rooter 
and likes slight shade. Since the tall, wiry stems 
bend with the wind and rain, this Lily is at its best 
when supported by stakes or shrubbery. Plant 6 
inches deep and 8 to 12 inches apart. 40c each; $3.00 
per 10; $25.00 per 100. 
LILLIAN CUMMINGS—A grand lily from Canada 
with grenadine-red flowers on three to five-foot 
stems. Vigorous, disease-free garden plant. Full 
sun or partial shade, plant four to five inches deep; 
lift and separate when clumps become too crowded. 
July flowering. Each, 55c; $4.50 per 10.
