WATER LILIES 
Have you ever noticed that, no difference what the beauty 
of the garden may be, in harmony of planting, in beauty of 
landscaping, the visitor drifts to the Water Lily Pool and 
there finds a sanctuary, a place where one can forget the 
trials of everyday life and find the charm and solace that 
only exquisite beauty can bestow. 
SO EASY TO GROW 
It's easy to have a Water garden, even in an apartment. 
Some of the Pygmae lilies will grow in a dishpan, providing 
you have a sunny window. Fill dishpan half full of good 
garden soil and plant Water Poppy, Water Hyacinth, Water 
Snowflake and some of the Water grasses and you will be 
pleased with the results. 
HARDY LILIES 
The Hardy lilies are among the easiest grown of any 
flower. After planting they need no attention except to 
keep the water level right and break off dead leaves. They 
grow in a wonderful array of colors and shapes and are a 
constant joy to all who grow them. 
California Water lilies have the advantage of our long, 
warm summers and put on a marvelous growth during this 
period, assuring you of strong plants, which will burst into 
bloom soon after being planted in your pool. The many 
letters from our customers telling us of this fact make us 
very happy, and we assure you nothing goes out from our 
Nursery that we would not be happy to receive. 
We have the choicest of the varieties which we are offer- 
ing at very attractive prices. 
All Hardy lilies are at least 2 years old when shipped, 
assuring bloom the first year.
