“CORONATION” LILY
CANADIAN SPECIALIST’S WORK. OTTAWA, Canada. •Of unusual beauty and delicacy is the golden “Coronation” lily developed in Ottawa, Canada, by Miss Isabella Preston,, specialist in ornamental horticulture at the Canadian Government Central Experimental Farm. This lily, whose wide golden petals curl back to bare long golden stamens, blooms in clusters of 15 to 20 at the top of a three-foot slender green stem. Miss Preston has won wide acclaim for her work with lilies, and is now engaged in developing a hardy type of rose which could be grown in all parts of the Dominion.
