Magic Lily of the Orient 
HARDY AMARYLLIS 
(Lycoris Squamigera) 
Among the rarest, the most beautiful garden 
subjects. The bulbs produce attractive, long leaves 
. in early spring, which mature and die down dur- 
} ing the summer. As if by magic, the flower spike 
suddenly appears in August and produces very 
ee pretty soft-pi Several flowers 
are clustered on the tall, stiff stems which grow as 
high as 3 feet! These bulbs are perfectly hardy and will 
grow in any average, well-drained garden. 
Plant the bulbs in a sunny location about 12 inches apart 
f and cover with 3 inches of soil. A perfect location for them 
is in the perennial border where the leaves of other planis 
can cover the bare spot which is left when the foliage withers. In that 
way, the beauty of these rare flowers can be enhanced by foliage from 
nearby plants. Lycoris is seldom seen in American gardens and always 
attracts a good deal of attention when in blocm.
