HARDY LILIES The brush cannot paint or the pen portray the ex- quisite purity and delicacy, yet magnificent grandeur of the stately Lily. It is the plus ultra of floral beauty and we urge our friends to each year add a few Lilies to their collection. No other flower will so adorn our homes when in bloom, and they constantly improve after planting. We feel sure if our readers could see a good collection of from twenty to forty different sorts in bloom they would never rest until they had a goodly number of their own. As a rule Lilies are of the easiest cultivation, especially the following, which have been carefully selected as the very hardiest and the best. Auratum—Color white, spotted crimson with a golden band through each petal; three to thirty flowers on a stalk. Strong bulbs, 40c each; 3 for $ Batemanni—Rich apricot. Very handsome. 20c each. Canadonse—A fine bell-shaped flower, light orange-yel- low, spotted. 20c each; $ per doz. Davuricum Hybrids—This is the Elegans style, but more slender, and blooms earlier. The colors are very clear and bright, ranging from dark red to light yellow, spotted, blotched and vaiegated. Exceedingly beauti- ful. For beds or massing they fill a rare want for a brilliant early-flowering Lily that may be used also among shrubbery or hardy perennial plants. 20c each; 3 for 50c; 12 for $ Elegans—For general use these are the most showy, vig- orous, hardy and satisfactory of all Lilies. Tliey are as brilliant as Tulips, with great cup-shaped blossoms of many fine colors borne in upright umbels. Very early, blooming from early June to late July. Mixed, all sorts and colors, 20c each; 3 for 50c; $ per doz. P
