HARDY DAY BLOOMERS 



N. ESCARBOUCLE : The most striking showy water lily in our collection 

 and a strong grower with a long blooming season. The color is a 

 brilliant crimson carmine, with orange-yellow center 



N. ROSE AREY: We believe this is the fine>t hardy pink water lily in 

 the world. It was awarded the >ilver medal by the New York 

 Horticultural Society. Its blossoms are 6 or 8 inches across, stand- 

 ing well out of the water. Its color is a brilliant cerise-pink through- 

 out. The edges of its narrow petals curve curiously inward, giving 

 it an exceptional depth of color and tone. A most prolific bloomer 

 from about May 15 to September. Developed in our own water 

 gardens by L. Helen Fowler. 'See Fig. 3, page 7) 



N. WM. FALCONER: The most brilliant dark red hardy lily in cultiva- 

 tion. Flowers 5 to 6 inches across, of an intense deep garnet color, 

 very beautiful and colorful 



N. GLORIOSA: A superb variety with deep carmine rose-colored flowers 

 4 to 6 inches across. A splendid bloomer, especially to be recom- 

 mended for tub culture
