Spatterdock 
Spatterdock or yellow 
waterlily makes a fine 
duck attraction when 
planted in addition to 
other natural foods. Mal¬ 
lards and Blacks are 
very fond of the seeds. 
Spatterdock produces a 
large strong root stalk 
which is excellent winter 
food for muskrats. This 
plant is also an impor¬ 
tant cover plant for fish 
and quite ornamental, producing large oval 
shaped leaves and yellow flowers. 
Spatterdock seed may be planted now in waters 
from 1 ter 6 feet in depth on almost any bottom 
soil. Six pounds will plant an acre.

Lotus 
The beautiful American 
Lotus (nelumbo lutea) has 
acorn-like seeds which are 
eaten by Mallards and oth¬ 
er wild ducks. It grows 
from 1 to 3 feet above the 
surface of the shallow 
waters, providing shelter 
and nesting places for the 
ducks. 
The flowers of the Amer¬ 
ican Lotus are very beau¬ 
tiful, of a light yellow color often eight inches 
across. These are considered very rare although 
they are hardy and will grow in any quiet shallow 
waters where the bottom soil is fairly rich. 
Now is nature’s sowing season and the seeds 
will germinate better if they soak in water over 
winter. Order now before our limited supply is 
exhausted. Fifteen pounds will plant one acre.
