For Tubs and Small Pools 
Many people feel that limited garden space 
cannot possibly permit the development of a 
lily pool. However, a tub garden can be 
quickly and easily established in a space no 
larger than two or three feet in diameter. If 
you are considering a tub garden or have a miniature pool you will 
find any of these six lilies are ideal for this purpose. There is a wide 
range of selection and choice of color, for we list suitable tropical as 
well as hardy varieties. Each is particularly adapted to limited grow- 
ing areas, and produces an abundance of lovely blooms that are most 
charming in tiny pool or tub garden. 
PYGMY LILIES 
PATRICIA. Charming, free blooming tropical lily. Beautiful crimson flowers. Buds are 
copper brown. Unusually prolific, bears young plants from center of the leaf. Ideal 
for tub culture or use in small pools. $2.75. 
ROYAL PURPLE. A handsome new tropical with flowers of a glowing purple that will 
add a note of regal splendor to your pool. $2.75.

WHITE PYGMY. Hardy. This is the Chinese Pygmy Water Lily which is best suited 
for shallow water or tub culture. Flowers are white with golden yellow center and 
sweetly scented; they are seldom more than 1% to 2 inches across, but are produced very 
freely. Foliage dark green, mottled with brown on top, red underneath. A unique and 
lovely variety. $2.00.

the late William Tricker in 1912. Pale lavender-blue flowers.

pygmy. Flowers are 2 to 2% inches across and a rich deep
