PINK AND ROSE SHADES 
Pink water lilies are exceedingly beau- 
tiful and their bright colors give a fine 
contrast. There are several types, some hav- 
ing rounded petals and bowl-shaped blos- 
soms, others tapering, sharp-pointed petals 
and starry form. A separate group are the 
fragrant eastern pond lily hybrids with 
particularly fresh, clear hues. 
MARLIAC PINK. Pale, shell-pink blos- 
soms, very charming when the buds un- 
fold and with delicate perfume. The flow- 
ers open quite early in the morning. A vig- 
orous free blooming plant and very popu- 
lar. $1.00. 
FORMOSA. Illustrated from a_ water 
color painting at the right. The color of 
the petals is very bright and pleasing. We 
particularly recommend it as one of the 
most satisfactory and free flowering in our 
collection, suitable for both the small and 

large pool. With generous culture the flow- 
ers will reach almost 7 inches in diameter 
opening out wide with broad, round-tipped 
petals and rich yellow stamens. It has a 
very pleasing fragrance that seems to go 
with just such a color. One of its best fea- 
tures is the freedom with which even 
newly-set plants bloom in never ceasing 
abundance. In addition the flower is splen- 
did for cutting and a bowl of these floating 
on their own leaves will bring exclamations 
of delight from your friends. 
Each $1.50. 
MARY EXQUISITA. A 
charming, very fragrant lily 
with soft pink petals. It is a 
select variety of the pink 
Cape Cod Lily and is ex- 
ceedingly hardy. Each $1.00. 
ROSE AREY. See photo 
page 13. Deep clear cerise- 
pink petals with satiny sheen 
a color that will enchant you.

petals give the flowers a 
starry, fairy-like effect. One

the true pond lily odor that 
sets these flowers above all 
others. It has the long slen- 
der rhizome of the Odorata 
lilies and is very hardy. Best 
planted in fairly shallow wa- 
ter (6 inches) until it is es- 
tablished when it may be set 
in water a foot deep. Each
