Blue Beauty, Tropical Water Lilies. 
Tropical Lilies give you colors not found in hardy sorts, and stand tall 
and erect above the water. They require extra care but will repay you 
many times.

Juno. (White). Large, 8 to 10 inch 
flowers all summer and fall. A 
grand sight. Rich yellow stamens. 
Frank Trelease. (Very dark crim¬ 
son). Wonderful with lighter 
colors. Magnificent. 
Lotus. 
This rare and beautiful flower grows in only three coun¬ 
tries—Egypt, China, and the United States. Has its place 
in history as the Sacred Lotus of the Nile. Everything 
about it is pretty—its leaves, its blooms, its seed pods. Color 
rosy pink. Really no large pool is complete without Egyp¬ 
tian Lotus; needs roomy pool for best results. 
In planting, settle the rhi¬ 
zomes gently into the soil 
with the growing end j 
below the surface. Have 
water 2 to 12 inches 
deep. Box for Lotus 
needs at least two cubic 
feet of good rich soil. 
Otherwise the same 
care as water lilies.
