HARDY 
WATER LILIES 
We have brought together here the finest group of 
water lilies under cultivation. We have never had any 
desire to become the largest or oldest growers of these 
beautiful flowers, but instead have concentrated all our 
efforts to the cultivation and development of better plants. 
Sixteen years of constant endeavor along these lines has 
placed us in a position to serve you with the best. Our 
thousands of satisfied customers have been our best adver¬ 
tisement. They have made it possible for us to eliminate 
expensive advertising, and we are passing this saving on to 
you in the form of lower prices. 
Sioux 
Orange or Sunset Colors 
COMANCHE. This is one of the best of the sunset colors. Upon 
opening is a rich apricot, deepening to orange-red as the flowers age. 
Blooms profusely, and is adapted to both large and small pools.$1.50 
SIOUX. Rich chrome yellow flowers deepening to amber-red as the 
flowers age. The petals are long and pointed, making a star shaped 
flower that stands above the water. This lily has become very popular 
during the past few years. On this account we have it listed in many 
of our collections.$1.50 
PAUL HARIOT. The flowers of this lily are difficult to describe. They 
are quite large and rather cup-shaped, the petals are clear yellow the 
first day then changing to orange-pink and deepening to shades of 
red. Blooms freely through the entire season.$1.25 
AURORA. A very changeable variety opening a rosy-yellow changing 
to a deep red. This lily is semi-dwarf in habit, blooms freely, each 
flower presenting a different appearance. Used extensively in the 
small pool and tub garden. Also a pleasing addition to the larger 
pools.$1.00 
SOLFATARE. A flower that resembles Paul Hariot, but a softer shade. 
Instead of becoming dark with age it has the appearance of being 
overlaid with brass. A vigorous plant of medium size and a prolific 
bloomer.$1.50 
INDIANA. A hybrid lily possessing most of the sunset colors. This is 
perhaps the most variable, changing from creamy yellow to dark 
crimson. This plant is of medium size and a free blooming variety. 
It may be used in pools of all size including small tub garden $1.25
