SUNSET VARIETIES 
Comanche (L EB A) An old favorite. Brilliant orange-red, 
the color deepens with age; becoming a warm red. A 
sturdy growing variety but will adapt itself to a small 
space. Has bloomed steadily for 10 months in our gar- 
dens. $2.50. 
Paul Hariot (M EB B) This lily is most pleasing, as the first 
day of opening the petals are a soft, yellowish pink, be- 
coming darker each day to almost a deep red. $2.50. 
Indiana (S GB C) A free growing variety, bearing beauti- 
ful copper-yellow flowers tinged with pink. A remarkable 
plant producing a constant succession of color changes in 
its freely produced flowers. $2.50. 
Chrysantha (S GB C) A fine variety for the Tub garden as 
the leaf spread is small. The flowers open a soft yellow 
which deepens with age to almost a vermillion. $2.00. 
Aurora (S GB C) A very changeable colored lily. If you 
only have room for one lily you will be pleased with this 
one, as you may have as many as 5 shades at one time. 
Does not grow large, so is suitable for small pools. $1.50. 
Solfatere (M GB B) Opens the first day an orange-yellow. 
During third and fourth days the blossoms become reddish- 
copper. $2.00.

gates so slowly it will not become common. One of the 
finest, freest blooming lilies grown, with bright orange- 
yellow flowers. $5.00.

gardeners. Flowers are a bright, coppery-red with orange 
stamens. It is a constant bloomer with beautiful varie- 
gated foliage. $3.00.

ed with copper-red. Unique colored lily. $5.00.
