After many years of experimenting in our growing and 
display ponds we have developed a scientifically balanced 
fertilizer, SLOCUM’S PERFECTION (the Perfect Water 
Lily Fertilizer). It contains everything that water lilies 
and aquatics need and is excellent for other flowers, peren- 
nials, and shrubs. Use one and one-half to two pounds for 
each lily and mix well through the soil. For MORE and 
LARGER BLOOMS, USE SLOCUM’S PERFECTION! 
3 lbs., $1.00; 7 Ibs., $2. 00; 12 Ibs., $3.00; 25 Ibs., $6.00. 
PLEASE NOTE: Rotted cow manure is good but gen- 
erally discolors the pool green (due to algae growth). If 

SLOCUMS PERFECTION 
The PERFECT Water Lily Fertilizer 

used at all, it should be used only in the bottom of planting 
tub. 
FERTILIZING DURING SUMMER: Water Lilies 
are very heavy feeders. You will get more and _ larger 
blooms if you will feed them SLOCUM’S PERFECTION 
3 or 4 TIMES during summer. Place a large handful in 
cheese cloth or a paper sack and press into soil close to roots 
on 2 or 3 sides of each plant. 
SPRING FERTILIZING: When the pool is being 
cleaned in the spring, remove top layer of soil and spade 
in 2 lbs. of SLOCUM’S PERFECTION. Replace top soil.
