Waterlil ies and Aquatic 
Plants 
You have never known all the delights of 
a garden, if you have never known the real 
pleasure that comes from a pool of Water- 
lilies. Hardy Waterlilies thrive in pools and 
small ponds, no trouble to care for them. A 
box one foot square and one foot deep is as 
small as you can have for the plants to do 
well. The soil for Waterlilies is preferably a 
mixture of two-thirds rich garden soli and 
one-third well-rotted cattle manure. Most 
Waterlilies thrive at any depth from 4 to 30 
inches.
