Perennial 
Water Lilies 
WE ARE listing those varieties of Perennial Water 
Lilies which we believe to be the best. Your choice 
of any of these will give you complete satisfaction. 
Perennial Water Lilies listed are grown and win- 
tered in our own aquatic gardens. It therefore 
follows that our plants are locally acclimated and 
not California or Florida grown.

Dear Sir: 
Sometime ago Senator Hebert received an order of Lilies 
from you, the planting of which I personally supervised. His 
men and myself followed your directions explicitly and I 
might say at this point that we did not lose one plant and that 
all the Lilies as well as the Hyacinths, not to mention the 
gold fish, are doing fine. The Lilies are pushing up a con- 
siderable number of buds and blooms all of which is naturally 
very gratifying to my Dad. Very truly yours, 
Signed: Edouard F. Hebert
