WATER LILIES FOR POOLS 
We have three pools here 
at the NURSERY and eveiy 
summer have them filled 
with Water Lilies, and 
have found that the two 
following lilies have proved 
to be the most successful, 
as to growth and the num¬ 
ber of flowers. 
Both these varieties are 
TROPICAL LILIES and 
cannot be planted until 
after .TUNE 1st. 
PENNSYLVANIA — Deep 
blue flowers a foot across. 
Very heavy bloomer. We 
have had one to five flowers 
per plant from last of 
JUNE until cold weather. 
$2.00 each. 
DAUBEN —Flowers light 
blue, and about 3 to 5 in. 
across. Last summer we 
had a few plants of this 
variety in 6 in. pots set in 
a pool only 1 ft. deep and we had as high as 10 b'ooms out at one time on one plant. This 
is a very fine lily for small shallow pools. $1.00' Each.
