Weeping Willow, excellent beside a pool 
but does not require it 

Hardy ‘Water Lilies 
©Bloom cAll Summer 

Perhaps the easiest flower grown. Once establis+ +, chey re- 
quire no cultivating, no weeding, no wateriz, except to see 
that the pool does not become dry. A pn -vith 8 to 12 inches 
of good soil, a foot or more of water, and sun will give you 
beautiful water lilies from May till frost. They need not be 
taken up during the winter if the water is deep enough so it will 
not freeze to the soil. When grown in boxes in concrete pools 
the boxes should be about 8 inches deep and 14 to 16 inches 
square, covered with about a foot of water. Suggestions for 
building pools will be sent on request. 
These are good strong plants and will bloom a few weeks 
after planting. Water Lilies postpaid when ordered in quan- 
tities of $2.00 or more. Otherwise, postage is additional.
