PERENNIAL LILIES 
for the NATURAL POND 
Do you have a cottage on a lake or a pond? Approxi- 
mately 15% of our customers do have and plant water 
lilies in front of their cottages. They can be planted 
either directly in the bottom of the lake if the soil is good, 
or in planting containers. Just imagine beautiful water 
lilies in different colors floating on the water in front of 
your cottage. Water lilies planted along a lake or pond 
will improve the fishing too because the fish like to hide 
underneath the pads. The lily pads protect the fish from 
their natural enemies such as hawks, herons, and king- 
fishers. All fish ponds should be heavily planted with 
lilies. Although all hardy water lilies are suitable for 
planting in the natural pond, we especially recommend 
the following collection:
