AN AIR VIEW OF MY NURSERIES 
Our many customers will be interested in knowing just what 
kind of place a water garden nursery is and where the plants 
thriving so in their pools have come from. 
In the center are our offices, greenhouses and packing 
house, all conveniently located together to expedite the thou¬ 
sands of orders shipped each year. Across the drive to the 
right is my home and over the roof you may see a large 
clump of banana trees. The buildings above it are garages, 
pumphouses for our water plant and storage barn. 
Above the greenhouses and enclosed by the fence are steam 
heated pools used to harden off early plants brought from the 
greenhouses—an exclusive but very practical service we offer 
our customers. In the large open pools in the upper section 
are grown part of our Hardy and 2-year-old Tropical Lilies. 
Most of the light colored pools are full of Blue Triumph and 
Blue Beauty Tropicals which will be shipped to our customers 
this spring. 
We have another plant approximately a duplicate of the 
above wherein are grown the rest of the great stocks needed 
to fill our orders. 
In the foreground are the frames and lathhouses containing 
millions of Cacti, which is our other great specialty.
