C.W GUOW Utiles have engrossed the atten tion of gardeners and tested their skill for many years and many of them have been given up In des pair as hopeless. Nearly alt oi them can be grown ir their needs are studied and provided for. There are, however, a . sufficient number of this handsome and stately genus that will grow un der almost any conditions except those of heat and drought so Hint the difficult sorts nniy be left for the collector and fancier. Lilies easily grown that belong in every garden are the madonna lily. Lliium candidum; tile native Turk's cap, L. superbum; the old fashioned tiger lily. L. ligrinuni; the candelabra lilies. L. uinbella lum or dauricum as It is some times known; the coral lily of Si beria. I., tcnui folium; and the handsome substitute for the Mast er lily, (he regal Illy. L. regale. Tin last is likely to gi more trouble than the others. To these should be added the Japanese ser Hon L. reseuui or rubrum and th" magnificent gold banded lily, L. anratum, even if the latter InsH only a year. Jt is so beautiful St is wo rllt an annual purchase. No bulb has mad"' ils w;iy as rapidly as 1 hi regal lily brought from the interior of China by K. H. Wilson of 'the Arnold Arbore tum only a few yejirs ago. Al though It is as rctidily growh from seed as 'the common perennials, blooming the third year from see 1 ii nd often 1 he second year, the supply seldom equals the 'Jeiiiaiid. Jl Is a while trumpet, similar in sh:ip(. to tho fiimillitr Kustcr lily. The outside of the trumpet Is tin ted with purple am) -tho throat is golden yellow. It Is Inirdy exeepl In one piirlfrllltir. While Hie bulbs stand any degree of freezing safely, the young shoots, as they appear in early spring, are very suscep tfbetio frcf.inti and' in case of un seasonable weather must he pro tected. If they are frozen the season's bloom is gone. All of these lilies except the ma donna lily should he planted deep, about six Ineh'.'s, The madonna lily should not have more than two inched of soil above Its crown. They all need fsiirly moist coti-, illtions but with good drainage so that water ca liiml stand about Hie bulb. It is usual to lake the pr -caul ion of planting tin- bull) in a pocket of sand. Another En t In case of extra choice lilies is to place an inverted flower pot In the hole and plant the bulb on Hie I np of the pot to assure perfect drainage.
