What reading level is The book of the Lily book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


So far as results have already proved, the Lilies that have been produced by intercrossing species are in almost every instance more vigorous than the parent species, and therefore we may hope that in the future we shall have numerous hybrid Lilies that combine the vigour of hybrids with the beauty and grace of the parents.
The intercrossing of Lilies, and raising the resulting progeny, is a very fascinating art, but up to the present 48 THE BOOK OF THE LILY time it has not been much practised
...in this country, and consequently we have but very few hybrid Lilies.
In California, however, the well known hybridist Mr Burbank is actively at work in this direction, and has sent to this country a series of hybrids, a selection from the large number he has raised, and we may expect more from the same source, and let us hope that other hybridists there are engaged in the same work.
The raising of seedling Lilies is a tedious process, necessitating as it does much patience and attentive care.
From the time the seed is sown until the bulbs reach a flowering size, varies probably from five to ten years, and during that period more or less attention must be given to the young stock, though this amount of trouble is well repaid by the results, as no one can predict what may be the actual result of intercrossing.
