GIGANTEUM HIMALIACUM (India) The most noble of all lilies. It Grows 
from 10 to 12 feet tall and bears a spike of long, white, sweetly 
fragrant trumpet flowers shaded purple on the exterior. It does 
have special requirements — partial shade, preferably an open 
glade in the woodland, and protection from strong winds. Drain- 
age is essential but there must be moisture too. When planting 
dig a hole 2 feet deep and 2 feet wide and fill with well-rotted 
manure and leaves, good loam and sand, and always leave the top 
of the bulb exposed or level with the suface of the ground. 
DON'T BURY IT. This species is perfectly hardy but should be 
mulched in colder parts of the country. 
The bulb is large and flowers but once. When it has flowered it 
should be lifted and discarded but the numerous offsets should 
be removed and replanted so that they can grow on to flowering 
size. We offer this species in large bulbs intended to bloom next 
season and in several sizes of smaller bulbs to follow in sub- 
sequent years.

lemon, others clear butter or pumpkin yellow. Some are overlaid

rich copper. It is not possible to offer selected colors or shapes — 
but all are interesting. Stocks limited.
