SIBERIAN WATER LILIES 


PREPAID | 
THE ROSE TREE OF CHINA (Prunus 
Triloba) is the most beautiful and showy 
of all small trees. It begins to bloom be- 
fore the leaves appear in the spring, being 
literally covered with very double rose-like 
pink flowers. AS an ornament from early 
spring until late fall, it has few equals. 
This symmetrically formed graceful little 
tree grows usually to a height of but 8 
feet and is attractive as a specimen or 
when planted in groups of shrub border. 
It is hardy and easily grown, and no lawn 
is so small that room cannot be found for 
at least one of these wonderful trees. Many 
who have seen it declare it to be the most 
beautiful tree they have ever seen. The 
rose-like blossoms make fine cut flowers. 

The Siberian, Pigmy or Baby Water Lily can be suc- 
cessfully grown indoors in a small bowl or outdoors in 
either a small or large pool. 
The Siberian Water Lily (Nymphaea Tetragona) is es- 
tis pecially suited for small quarters as it never feels 
eramped. This dwarf variety is the smallest species in 
cultivation and will grow and bloom indoors in an 
F ordinary 15 inch crock. The leaves are 3 to 4 inches 
c across. The white flowers, 14% to 2% inches across, 
; are open from 8 to 4 days, closing at night. ‘The Siber- 
gt ian Water Lily is a native of Siberia and perfectly 
hardy. We have no plants to offer. Grows readily 
' from seed. Pkt. 25ce.
