A Very Late, Long Flowering Lily 
FORMOSANUM Late, Pure White—3 18-This is a new form, quite 
different in that the entire flower is pure white, inside and out. Too, 
it is far more vigorous than the older No. 316 and seems to be 
much longer lived. This is not a seedling but a new clonal strain. It 
starts flowering in September and keeps it up until late fall unless 
cut down by frost. Where fall is long and mild as in this part of 
Oregon, this late form usually flowers well into December. For cut- 
ting it is very fine, a real beauty. I’m sure you will find it most 
desirable. The bulbs are not large but they produce heavy stems 
with many stem roots and a huge number of blooms. A bulb an inch 
in diameter will send up a full size flower stalk. Succeeds in aver- 
age soils. If late summer and fall are dry, don’t overlook watering. 
PD 5 in. Prefers full sun.

GOLD CUP Hybrids—296-Introduced in ‘49, these were so popular 
we had to withdraw them to build up stocks. They are a vigorous 
group, upright and free flowering, of the easiest culture. They vary 
from bright orange-yellow through shades of apricot to chrome- 
yellow. Full sun, June flowering. PD 4 in.

GOLD FLAKE-352-A 1954 introduction of exceptional merit. It 
is a large, flat opening bloom, semi-upright on 2 to 3 foot stems, 
golden yellow with mahogany spots. A very showy plant not only 
in the garden but for flower arrangements. Good in full sun or part 
shade. Mid June. PD 5 inches. 3 for $12.50, each $4.35 
FIRE KING-—3 1 0-Some of the experts consider 
this one of the finest of the newer lilies. It 
produces a magnificent four foot spike with 
up to forty vermilion-scarlet blooms, beauti- 
fully held as the picture shows. Fire King 
multiplies fast and is very easy to grow. An 
established clump is one of the most vivid 
color displays in the garden in late June and 
early July. PD 5 in.

FIREKING—VERMILION-SCARLET 
LONGIFLORUM ‘“‘Estate’’—-440-To a great 
many garden folk, the ‘Easter Lily’’ is the true 
lily and among lilies of this type, Estate is 
tops. In the garden it grows 4 to 6 feet tall 
with six to nine huge pure white trumpets 
at least double the size of the old imported 
Easter Lilies. Estate is a lily that should be 
in every garden. From any standpoint it is 
good. The flower is large, it lasts well, it is 
easy to grow and with slight protection, it is 
hardy even up north. Don’t overlook this 
beautiful white lily. Late July. PD 6 in.

“THE ESTATE LILY’’—WHITE 
@ Jumbos: 3 for $3.80, ea. $1.40, Doz. $15. 
LONGIFLORUM Ace-435-This is a lily | can 
recommend very highly for either garden or 
greenhouse where a dwarf lily is wanted. Ace 
seldom grows over two feet tall, frequently 
less. However its blooms are very large, well 
held and freely produced on good stems. For 
a mass of bloom, few other lilies equal it. As 
a forcing lily, it exceeds the famous Croft. 
July-Aug. PD 6 in. 3 for $2.35, each 90c 
LONGIFLORUM Croft—430-This widely ad- 
vertised Easter Lily, originally grown only in 
southern Oregon, is one of the finest forcing 
lilies for the greenhouse. In the garden we 
recommend Estate but inside Croft is hard to 
beat. Flowers outside in July. Full sun. Ht.

LONGIFLORUM Estate x Snowdrift—44 |—For 
those who would like a lily similar to our 
Estate but not so tall, this new strain fills the 
bill. It has all the good features of the Estate 
but grows only 3 to 4 feet tall. This is the 
first offering of this cross and we look for it 
to become very popular. Culture the same as 
other Longiflorums. Try it and I’m sure you 
will find it satisfactory.
