Narcissus Some varieties bloom as early as the Crocus. The flowers assume many forms and present many charming combinations of white, gold, primrose, orange, sulphur and pure yellow. Some are quite fragrant; all are very hardy, except the clustered Polyanthus. Double and single. Tulips Lilies - Lilium No class of plants capable of being cul- tivated out-of-doors possesses so many charms; rich and varied in color, stately and handsome in habit, profuse in varie- ty, and of delicious fragrance, they stand prominently out from all the other hardy plants. Lilies thrive best in a dry, rich soil, where water will not stand in the winter. After planting they require very little care, and should not be disturbed for several years. Established plants bloom more freely than if taken up an- nually. Plant in groups of five or six, or in large beds. Auratum (Gold Band or Lily of Japan) —Flowers very large, delicate ivory- white, thickly dotted with rich, choco- late-crimson spots. A bright golden band runs through the center of each petal. The finest of all Lilies. Harrisii (Bermuda Easter Lily)—Flow- ers large, trumpet-shaped, pure waxen white, gracefully formed and delight- fully fragrant. The ease with which it can be forced into flower in winter has made it wonderfully popular. Longiflorum—Large, snow-white, trum- pet-shaped; very fragrant. Melpomene—Flowers large and abundant; rich blood-crimson, heavily spotted. Tigrinum (Double Tiger Lily)—Orange scarlet, with dark spots. Speciosum—White, shaded with rose, spotted red. Speciosum Album—White, with a slight rose tint on the ends of the petals. x These are the most glowingly brilliant and effective of all the early spring flowers. Plant them thickly and lavishly in the fall, and they will award you with abundant ch
