Leaf Propagating Tropical Water Lilies 
THRIVE IN THE SMALLEST POOL. PLANT THEM FOR EARLY AND CONTINUOUS BLOOM 
For the average 
small backyard pool 
or tub garden the 
Leaf Propagating 
Lilies are just the 
thing. Their small 
leaf spread, early and continuous 
blooming habit have increased 
their popularity every year until 
now they rank among our best 
sellers. This year we have 
greatly extended our facilities 
for raising them so that we can 
i)ffer fully developed plants at a 
.'educed postpaid price. It should 
be remembered that all plants 
offered by us are shipped with¬ 
out expense to you, a saving of 
from 50 to 75 cents per plant. 
HOW TO PLANT THEM 
When they are shipped to you 
the plants are shaken out of 
their pots, wrapped in damp 
moss and carefully packed into 
stout cartons. You will receive 
them as fresh as the day they 
left our nursery. It is best to 
fill the pool before planting, 
either slipping the boxes into 
the water after planting or 
setting out directly into the wa¬ 
ter. This will prevent the plants 
from suffering while the pool is 
filling. Allow from 6 to 12 inches 
of water over the plants. If the 
leaves are submerged after 
planting they will be on the sur¬ 
face by next morning. To se¬ 
cure the most flowers use a box 
or tub about 18 inches across. 
The larger the box the larger 
the flowers.

Showing the Peculiar Leaf Propagating Habit 
This has long been one of our 
most popular day blooming lilies. 
We have always enjoyed it and 
feel sure you will also. Its fra¬ 
grant blossoms are a beautiful 
Wistaria blue with a ring of blue tipped stamens surrounding the clear yellow cup. In size they are from 
6 to 7 inches in diameter with wide curving petals and sepals suffused rosy lilac. It is the freest bloom¬ 
ing of the Leaf Propagating Lilies, there often being three or four open flowers on a single plant. 0 0 11% 
A variety suitable for all general purposes, blooming strongly while yet in pots.
