TO THOSE WHOM WE HAVE SERVED 
AND WHOM WE HOPE TO SERVE 
It would be real joy to impart to you some of our 
enthusiasm about Waterlilies. Not because we sell Water- 
lilies, but because we believe they should be a PART OF 
EVERY GARDEN. Waterlilies are so easily grown that 
anyone can have at least one plant. All you need is a tub 
or half-barrel of water, a box of good soil, and a sunny 
spot in the garden. 
FOR YOUR INFORMATION 
For more than a quarter of a century we have been 
growing Waterlilies. At the present time we have more 
than sixty pools where we propagate Waterlilies and 
aquatic plants. In addition, we have several large green¬ 
houses given over to Tropical Waterlilies and tender plants. 
Then, there is a special building devoted to the Fish Depart¬ 
ment, where we breed about 75 varieties of Tropical Fish. 
Will be glad to send you price list if interested. 
We have many medals awarded to us on our Waterlilies.
