GRASSYFORK TROPICAL WATER LILIES 
NIGHT-FLOWERING VARIETIES 
GORGEOUS DISPLAY of brilliant color is the claim of the Night-blooming Lilies 
for recognition and a place in every pool. The designation ‘“Nightbloomer” is a trifle 
misleading; specifically, the flowers close at midday, or when the sunlight becomes 
strongest, and open again in the afternoon. On cloudy days or in late summer, when 
the weather becomes cooler, they sometimes remain open through the twenty-four 
hours. 
The magnificently large, exquisitely colored flowers are deserving of greater popu- 
larity than they at present enjoy. These Lilies can be grown in the smallest of pools, 
in which case the leaves and flowers will be dwarfed, though the blooms lose none of 
their rich coloring; or in a large Pool, where with ample space they will produce 
continuous blooms surpassing in size any of the other types of Lilies.

pink with large cup shaped blooms of a de- 
lightful clear pink. No collection is complete

Lotus with a prismatic setting of Blue Beauty and delicate Rubra Rosea Tropical Water Lilies, 
It’s so easy and inexpensive to have such a colorful, exotic center to your garden.

® I have been through the hatcheries, the green- 
house, and factory, and every man seems to 
know his business. They do not try to wait on 
two or three people at one time. All questions 
ave answered without hesitation. In fact, every 
man seems to be an expert in his line. 
© I can tell you honestly that not one of your 
men have acted as if they were wasting their 
time in waiting on me. In other words, it seems 
to me as if I were going to visit a friend when | 
come to your establishment.”

with them and they have created a lot of inter- 
est among our friends.” .. . 28-3 WMW.
