HARDY WATER LILIES 
The Backbone of « Water Lily Collection 
WATER GARDEN without Water Lilies would be like an engagement ring without the diamond 
solitaire, almost utterly lacking in interest. Therefore, make Water Lilies the center feature of your 
pool planting. The starlike flowers will glisten in the sunshine and glow in the moonlight. They are 

the poetry of the garden, the gems of the pool. 
Start your collection with Hardy Water Lilies, selected from the list below. These vigorous and depend- 
able varieties are easily grown and give a long season of bloom. If protected from actual freezing during the 
winter, plants of these hardy varieties will live to flower from season to season, making them a long-term 
investment of the first order. 
We ship only large, sturdy tubers that will bloom this season. All Water Lilies, both Hardy and Tropical, 
also Shallow Water and Bog Plants, will be shipped express collect.
