It grows less than 18 inches in height, and the plants produce a large number 2 of flowers, which are pure white. According to the best English publica-UJ tions it is one of the finest Lilies of recent introduction, and will soon9 acquire a high degree of popularity, and be grown wherever Lilies aree appreciated. It is so well thought of in England that it was introduced there in ISOl as a new lily at one guinea each. I have succeeded in secnr-^ ing a few hundred bulbs of this grand nevM ve7y low figure. 35 cents each; 3 for Liiium Auratum. DOUBLE TIGER LILY.
