GLORIOSA. A lily that is cor¬ 
rectly named since it is so ex¬ 
ceedingly glorious that we rec¬

collection. Let us assure you that 
Gloriosa, without doubt, sets a 
standard among hardy lilies 
and beautiful flowers. Its 
ATTRACTION blossom is a truly remarkable 
red and is often 6 to 7 inches 
across, perfect in form and rather double. Its perfume is sim¬ 
ilar to that of apple blossoms. It is thoroughly at home in pool 
or lake, and its characteristic small leaf-spread and large blos¬ 
soms make it an ideal plant for tub culture. (Illustrated m

this choice lily at this low price. $ 2 .

white. Its sepals are almost white with faint rose streaks. As

low. Under favorable conditions blooms attain 8 inches across. $2.25.

Wonderful Results with Tricker Lilies 
“First I want to tell you that we just had wonderful results 
with the Hardy Lilies and also the Tropicals we received from 
you, as well as the other plants you sent. I bought the Hardy 
Lilies of you several years ago and have not lost one of them 
thru the winter to date. You may refer anyone to us at any 
time you wish in regard to your lilies or other plants and fish 
and products, as we have had quite a number of things from 
you and they have always proved very satisfactory. We have 
what is considered the prettiest yard and pool of anyone in our 
city.” Sincerely, L. F. Baughman, Redfield, S. Dak.

PYGMY" LILIES 
for Small Pools 
Many people feel that their limited garden space 
cannot possibly permit the development of a lily pool. 
However, a tub garden can be quickly and easily 
established in a space no larger than two or three 
feet in diameter! If you are considering a tub garden 
or have a miniature pool you will find any of these 
four Hardy Lilies are ideal for this purpose. Each 
is particularly adapted to limited growing areas. These 
“Pygmy” Lilies produce an abundance of small, ex¬ 
quisitely lovely blooms that are most charming in 
the tiny pool or tub garden. 
YELLOW PYGMY. A tiny lily that is ideal for tub cul¬ 
ture. Flowers from one to two inches across are 
a rich golden yellow. Leaves are pleasingly mottled 
with chocolate. 75c. 
AURORA. The flowers are rosy-yellow on the first day, 
red-orange on the second, and deep red on the 
third. Its stamens are orange-red and the leaves are 
mottled with brownish-red. One of the best for the 
tub garden. $1. 
WHITE PYGMY. This is the Chinese Pygmy Water 
Lily which is best suited for shallow water or 
tub culture. Flowers are white with golden yellow 
center and sweetly scented; they are seldom more than 
IV 2 to 2 inches across, but are produced very freely.

VIGOROUS-GROWING HARDY LILIES 
for Natural Ponds 
For most satisfactory results, lilies that are naturalized in ponds must be strong, 
free-growing plants. We have selected four Tricker lilies that are extra-hardy and 
especially adapted for naturalizing. Their great leaf spread will provide a luxuriant 
display of foliage and each variety sends forth a multitude of beautiful flowers. 
Note the very low prices. 
ROSE MAGNOLIA. Flowers of an exquisite shade of pink. 4 to 5 inches across, 
standing well out of the water. 
75c each; $7.50 per doz.; $50 per 100. 
W. B. SHAW. Flowers large, of rich rose-pink and very fragrant. Strong grower and 
continuous bloomer of N. Odorata type. 
75c each; $7.50 per doz.; $50 per 100. 
LOOSE. A beautiful, large white lily, 5 to 7 inches across, with a delightful fragrance. 
Especially desirable because of its freedom and continuance of blooming. The 
flowers open very early in the day. One of the best of the white Nymphaeas. 
75c each; $7.50 per doz.; $50 per 100. 
HOPATCONG (Odorata Gigantea). This is a native of the southwestern states. It 
requires deeper water than usual and more room to spread than any other lily. 
It is excellent for naturalizing. The leaves are light red underneath and the flowers 
are very large and pure white in color. Fine for bold contrast. 
35c each; $3.50 per doz.; $22.50 per 100.
