Guidelines for authors<br />
Contributions for publication in the Royal Horticultural Society <strong>Lily</strong> <strong>Group</strong><br />
yearbook, Lilies and Related Plants, are invited on any aspect of lilies and related<br />
plants – growing, cultivation and breeding, species and cultivars, history, people<br />
who have made a significant contribution to the subject and nurseries or gardens.<br />
Any questions concerning articles can be addressed to the Editor, Caroline Boisset,<br />
at: carolineboisset@btinternet.com or at St Olaves, 19 Woolley Street, Bradfordon-Avon,<br />
Wiltshire BA15 1AD, UK; telephone +44 (0)1225 864808.<br />
It is a condition of acceptance that contributions are the original work of the<br />
author(s) and that the Editor should be notified if they have been previously<br />
published or are under consideration for publication elsewhere. The Editor<br />
reserves the right to refuse any contribution and to make minor textual changes<br />
without reference to the author.<br />
Contributions can be submitted in any format, hand-written, typescript,<br />
double-spaced on one side of the paper, or, preferably on floppy disc or CDrom,<br />
in formats compatible with Windows (Word) or Mac (Quark/InDesign); if in<br />
the latter format a hard copy should also be supplied.<br />
High quality illustrations, colour transparencies, prints (in colour or black<br />
and white), or A5 high-resolution digital pictures (these should be at least 300<br />
lines, dots or pixels per inch) are welcome. Authors must remember that it is<br />
sometimes necessary to print an illustration in black and white at the discretion<br />
of the Editor. Maps, diagrams and line drawings are also welcome and should<br />
be drawn clearly in black ink within a minimum base line width of 110mm. If<br />
artwork and illustrations have previously been published elsewhere or are the<br />
property of another, it is the responsibility of the author to obtain any permission<br />
needed for reprinting, and to forward a copy of the permission to the Editor.<br />
Authors should also be aware that, as the lead-time for an issue can be up to two<br />
years, any illustrative material may be in the care of the Editor for a long period<br />
of time.<br />
The present Editor’s policy is to publish the author’s original words as far<br />
as possible but should any changes be necessary the author will be consulted.<br />
Proofs will not normally be sent for approval prior to publication.<br />
References should be cited in the text referring to a list of references at the<br />
end of the article.<br />
Where the Editor considers it necessary she will refer manuscripts to members<br />
of the <strong>Lily</strong> <strong>Group</strong> Committee for their consideration and advice.
