Growing Star Lilies 
They are always shipped as 
year-old tubers which, when 
planted sprouted end uppermost 
quickly come into flower. Remem¬ 
ber these very tubers have blos¬ 
somed profusely all the previous 
summer and will give rise to 1 to 
3 crowns, each of which will 
flower most freely. In planting 
cover lightly about a half inch 
and sink the box in from 6 to 12 
inches of water. See that they 
are not crowded out by the hardy 
lilies which start into growth be¬ 
fore them. They will sprout and 
come to the surface when the 
water temperature averages 70°. 
To winter them, break off the 
old tuber as well as any new 
ones formed and pack in clean, 
damp sand, storing them in a 
frost-free cellar.

Our Friends Write 
"The Star Trio has been 
beautiful, three to six blooms 
on each plant since two weeks 
after they were planted." 
C. L. TROTTER, 
Chattanooga, Tenn. 
"I planted the Star Trio col¬ 
lection last season and they 
completely filled the pool with 
blossoms." 
DR. A. V. GARLOCK, 
Bemidji, Minn. 
D URING past years I have found it almost impossible to grow enough of these sprightly water lilies to supply the ever- 
increasing demand. Every year they gain a new circle of friends for whoever sees them falls in love with them. They 
have all the good points that one could ask for. They are brilliantly colored, the pinks fresh and clear, the blues electric, 
vivid. Their fragrance captivating, spicy-sweet with a mellow tang. Blooml No other lily can compare with them. If I tell 
you the truth you will not believe me—over 1,000 flowers in a season by actual count on a five-foot box of them! And 
remember, each blossom was from five to seven inches across. We have great pools of them hundreds of feet long that are 
carpets of color for months. The blossoms are so numerous as to be almost touching. We are proud to have introduced 
these most popular of lilies.
