We have by repeated tests with all Lilies found that the following two sorts are admirably adapted to pot culture for winter blooming. 'While not quite so early as Harrisi and Candidum, they are nevertheless not far behind them in their season of blooming. Parryi is a very fine and rare sort, and justly termed the "Yellow ; Parryi, or Yellow Harrlsl—One of the very rarest, choicest and most beautiful of all Lilies. Elegant for pot culture as well as for the garden. Flowers partly trumpet- shaped, like Harrisi, and of C golden yellow color, very deep and glossy. Exceedingly fragrant and blooms early. For pot culture this will rival Harrisi, its rich golden color and graceful form making it a most unique com- panion to that popular variety. It issure to succeed well in pots with the same treatment, and when in bloom it will be found to be the most beautiful of the two. though not quite so large. We have a largo stock of home-growr bulbs, and can offer extra fine specimens for pots at 60c each. Excelsum, or Yel low Candidum—This beautiful Lily is a near relative to Candidum, being like it in bulb, foliage and growth, the flowers being a little different in shape and of a rich apricot-yellow color. It is fragrant, and one of the most exquisitely beautiful of all Lilies, and like Candidum an early and superb winter-bloomer. Large bulbs, 60c. ea
