HOPATCONG (Odorata Gigantea). This is a 
native of the southwestern states. It re- 
quires deeper water than usual and more 
room to spread than any other lily. It is 
excellent for naturalizing. The leaves are 
light red underneath and the flowers are 
very large and pure white in color. Fine for

$25 per 100. 
HELEN FOWLER. An exquisite pink Nym-

fragrant flowers are borne above the water 
and are desirable for cutting. As the leaves 
are small, this variety is also excellent when 
used in small pools. Certified by the Horti- 
cultural Society of New York. $1.50 each; 
$15.00 per doz.; $90.00 per 100.
