THE SACRED LOTUS 
The sacred flower of the Egyptians always commands interest and admiration, because of its sacred history, and 
beautiful large flowers, which are borne on long stems. The large leaves, often 2 to 2^/4 feet in diameter, some floating 
on the water, others two or more feet above the water, and with the flowers still higher, form a never to be forgotten 
sight. No place in our large gardens is more visited than the lotus ponds. We consider no water garden complete 
without the lotus. See small photo this page and pages 2 and 31. These flowers remain open day and night and can 
be grown in tubs or pools. Heretofore we have only offered them in pink and yellow. We now offer them as follows:
