VIGOROUS GROWING HARDY LILIES 
FOR NATURAL PONDS 
_ These are the strong, free-growing, spread- 
ing varieties that are so splendid for ponds. 
Varieties listed have luxuriant foliage and 
beautiful flowers. All are extra hardy and 
especially adapted for naturalizing. The great 
leaf spread provides shade and the plants af- 
ford protection for the young fish from their 
natural enemies. Pools used for growing game 
fishes should by all means be planted with 
these lilies. 


CULTURAL NOTE: Lilies can be planted at 
the edge of the pond in shallow water for they 
will naturally spread out into the deeper water. 
Note the very low prices.

HOW TO ARRANGE YOUR LILY POOL PLANTING 
The well planted lily pool should include 
aquatic and floating plants, as these are the 
natural companions to water lilies. Then, too, 
the upright growing shallow water plants give 
a pleasing contrast and make the pool much 
more interesting. With them you can give 
your pool a touch of tropical luxuriousness. 
An attractive arrangement is to have a 
eenter planting in your pool, whether it be 
round or square or irregular in shape. This 
center planting (marked “B” in the illustra- 
tion) should be made up of such plants as 
Papyrus, Pickerel Rush and Arrowhead, or 
see Collection B-4, page 23. Group the lilies 
around this centerpiece about 3 to 5 feet apart 
according to the size of pool and number of 
lilies. 
At the corners, or at regular intervals 
around the edge of the pool, if the pool is of 
fair size, may be grouped other aquatic plants 
such as Taro, Forget-Me-Not, Primrose 
Creeper, Spiral Palm, ete. (indicated by letter 
“C”’ on illustration). 
Floating plants may have their roots an- 
chored or be left to float on the surface, 
wherever the breeze takes them.
