“ATTRACTION” 
Finest Red Hardy Water Lily 
WHITE 
ODORATA—A native American Water Lily. It is a vigorous, 
prolific grower and has especial merit in outdoor ponds. Being the most 
inexpensive of lilies, it is a good variety to experiment with or to 
plant where quantity is needed for effect. Flowers are pure white 
and quite attractive. .65¢ each. 
MARLIAC WHITE (Albida)—A very desirable white lily. The 
stamens are light yellow, sepals touched with pink, blooms continu- 
ally through the season. Leaves are light green on top, dark red 
underneath while young. Beautifies any pool. $1.75 each. 
GLADSTONE—This is one of the finest pure white lilies. It bears 
an abundance of dazzling white flowers, 6” to 8” in size, having broad 
petals and yellow stamens. It is a very strong grower. 
YELLOW 
MEXICANA—A hardy lily with a unique method of reproduction 
by runners. It also forms bunches of small bulbs (shaped like tiny 
bananas) which enable it to resist freezing and drying up after a 
season’s growth. We recommend it for its curious habits. It is a 
shy bloomer but will do well in large, shallow lakes or ponds. 
Flowers are light yellow. Leaves dark green with red blotched

bloomer until frost. 
SUNRISE—An enormous and very fine yellow of recent introduc- 
tion. As its name suggests, Sunrise is an early bird among the water 
lilies and opens its large Chrysanthemum shaped flowers early in the 
morning. Petals are long, narrow and crinkly, leaves very oval with 
wavy edges colored dark green above and red flecked with dark red 
brown below. ‘This is an aristocrat of Hardies. 
RED 
JAMES BRYDON—This is one of the best of the earlier American 
varieties and still unsurpassed. Flowers are large, cup-shaped, full 
petaled and of brilliant rosy crimson color. Leaves are very orna- 
mental and the plant is vigorous and free flowering.

GLORIOSA—Flowers are dark carmine red, beautifully formed and 
very fine for cutting, as they will open four or five days when floated 
in a bowl (as all water lily blossoms should be shown when cut). 
Flowers are delightfully fragrant and are produced continuously 
throughout the season. The leaf spread of Gloriosa is smaller than 
‘Attraction,’ but its flowers nearly as large, so that it 1s better 
adapted to smaller spaces than ‘‘Attraction.”

ATTRACTION—This is one of the Aristocrats among Water Lilies 
For several years no lily has been more greatly admired at LAKE- 
VIEW than a group of Attraction lilies which are continually in 
bloom with gorgeous dark red flowers 6” to 8” in diameter. The 
dark red of the petals is a stunning background for the striking 
yellow center and stamens of the flower. The blossoms of ‘‘Attrac- 
tion’? are among the finest hardy water lilies used as cut flowers.

Hardy Water ihe: 
Lakeview Water Lilies Are Sure To Please 
NE or more specimens of the Hardy Water Lilies (Genus 
Nymphaea) should be in every pool. Fish and plants belong 
together and each profits by the other’s presence. Lily leaves 
shade the\ Goldfish on hot Summer days, and the fish in turn recip- 
rocate by eating up the bugs as rain (or your hose) washes them 
from the surface of the leaves. Water Lilies will adjust themselves 
to small changes in water level. If their general requirements of 
rich soil, shallow water and sunny location are met, very little atten- 
tion will be necessary thereafter. 
The varieties we list here are quite hardy and well adapted fon 
pools or ponds. ‘They begin to flower very early in the season. In 
our vicinity blooms begin to appear in April and continue steadily 
until October. All lilies properly tagged when shipped.
