Every One Loves the Hardy Lilies 
Water Lilies are found growing wild in almost every country on the globe, in 
colors of red, blue, white, pink, and yellow. 
Hybridists have improved on these until there are now more than 150 varieties, in¬ 
cluding Tropics. There are no blue Hardy Lilies. 
The Hardy Lilies are among the easiest grown of any flower. After planting they 
need no attention except to keep the water level right and break off dead leaves. They 
grow in a wonderful array of colors and shapes and are a source of constant joy to 
all who grow them. 
California Water Lilies have the advantage of our long, warm summers and put on 
a marvelous growth during this period, and while they are dormant they have not 
been subjected to severe cold and have stored up an abundance of strength, burstng 
into bloom soon after being planted in your pool. Shipments of our Lilies are in bloom 
shortly after being planted, as many satisfied customers have assured us. We have the 
choicest of the many varieties, at very attractive prices.
