HOW TO ARRANGE THE PLANTS 
The arrangement of plants shown in this illustration is for a small rectan¬ 
gular or crescent shaped pool, and is particularly suitable for a pool that 
has a background of a wall or high-growing plants. Please note that the tall 
growing varieties are placed at the back against this background. This 
illustration shows how easy it is to group these plants attractively in a 
small pool. 
If your pool is located in an open space so you can walk all around it, a 
most pleasing arrangement of the Egyptian Water Garden is as follows: 
All the tall-growing plants, A, B, C, D, E, and G would be planted in one 
large container in the center. The Lotus and Water Lilies would each be 
planted in a separate container and be grouped around the centerpiece. This 
arrangement is suitable for any shaped pool and forms the loveliest pool 
imaginable. For general list of Egyptian Lotus varieties, see page 20. 
The Mystic Trio 
One each of the American, Egyptian and Japanese 
Lotus listed and described on page 20. Value $4.50.
