he year this group of magnificent flowers becomes 
more popular. Garden lovers often strive hard with 
other plants to receive their reward of only a few 
flowers. Here what rich rewards await the Water Gar- 
dener! These plants are the Aristocrats of the Water 
Garden; their numerous flowers the most gorgeous of all 
aquatics, and success always follows when simple require-

There is no Hardy blue water lily, but there are many 
blue Tropicals. These are the so-called ‘“Tender’’ lilies of 
vivid color. Being natives of the Tropics, they cannot survive 
frost and winters in our climate, but bloom wonderfully dur- 
ing the Summer. They are supplied AFTER JUNE lst as 
potted plants and are best treated as annuals, to be replaced 
yearly. They bear their flowers on stout stems well above 
water, are very free flowering, and may be used as cut 
flowers. (Flowers open and close each day.) They will bloom 
steadily from the middle of June until frost. 
Buy at least one Tropical water lily for your pool! Even 
though you consider it an annual and that it will last but 
one season, you will be rewarded with many exotic flowers 
from June until frost! Our Tropical Lilies are all strong 
plants and we are sure they will please you. 

This photograph shows the wealth of gorgeous flowers which are 
produced by the fine Tropical Water Lilies. Notice also how the flowers 
stand proudly above the water.

BLUE AND PURPLE 
AUGUST KOCH — This day blooming water lily is in our opinion 
the best of the blue lilies for average pool conditions in Northern and 
Central States. It is not nearly as temperamental as some of the others; 
it stands a wider range of temperature, will not go dormant from chill- 
ing, and is a steady bloomer bearing many gorgeous double petalled 
lavender blue flowers about 6 to 8” diameter, having gold stamens and 
centers. The leayes are light green with slight reddish cast underneath 
and viviparous, i. e. produce young plants from the center of leaf. 
Price $2.00 each. 
BLUE BEAUTY [Or Pennsylvania) — This is one of the largest sell- 
ing Blue Tropical Water Lilies. Produces many deep blue flowers with 
yellow stamens and centers. Open during the day. Size up to 10 inches 
diameter when amply nourished. Price $2.00 each. 
PANAMA PACIFIC — This is one of the most popular Water Lilies. 
It is of medium size, very free flowering and can be used for blooming 
in conservatories during the Winter. Flowers are of regal splendor with 
rich wine colored petals holding the tempting nectar in a golden center. 
Buds and leaves bronze green. The plant is “‘Viviparous’? with same 
characteristics as August Koch. Suited to large or small pools. 
Price $2.00 each. 
MRS. EDWARDS WHITAKER [Var. gigantea)—This is the largest 
flowering day blooming water lily, and where well fertilized and given 
plenty of room for roots and leaves, will produce flowers over a foot 
across, and plenty of them. The flowers are a lavender blue which 
shades into a pale blue as the blossoms age. Leaves are light green, 
occasionally spotted with dark purple beneath. $2.25 each. 
PINK 
GENERAL PERSHING—This lily, named after our famous war general, 
is considered the finest of all pink Tropical Lilies. The flowers have 
splendid size and are a pale rose purple in color. They are delightfully 
Bn aya and open early in the morning. Buds are dark green striped 
with purple. Leaves dark green blotched with pink beneath.

day bloomers. Flowers 8 to 10 inches across under favorable conditions, 
but can be used in small pools, too. $1.75 each. 
NIGHT BLOOMING VARIETIES 
The polowine lilies are so-called ‘“‘Night Bloomers.’’ However, as they 
open about 4 to 6 P. M., bloom during the night and until sun-up next 
morning, they are actually closed only about 7 hours daily. The Homer 
are so magnificent that at least one should be in every pool. 
WHITE 
JUNO—This is a beautiful hybrid developed from the Egyptian White 
Lotus Lily. Flowers are 8 to 12” with broad, wide-open petals exposing 
a mass of yellow stamens. Its flowers open in the evening and remain 
open until morning. $2.00 each.

water lily. It was recently developed by the Missouri Botanical Gardens.

blooming lily. The flowers are cup-shaped, of an Amaranth pink color.
