ANNUAL (Tropical) WATER-LILIES 
Eventually you shall include annual water-lilies in your collection — why not this year? No pool is complete 
without at least one. 
Annual lilies produce many more and larger flowers than the perennial lilies do. It is not uncommon for 
one plant to throw up four or five flowers at one time. 
Planted in large soil containers they grow many times the size of perennial lilies. For small pools, we 
recommend planting in smaller soil containers so as to produce smaller plants and flowers. They will bloom as 
profusely in a small soil container as they do in a large soil container. 
Our annual lilies are grown in five inch pots; therefore, they are well established and vigorous plants 
when shipped to you, and they are guaranteed to grow. 
Annual lilies should not be planted outdoors until June or until the weather has become settled and warm.
