NICHT-BLOOMINC 
Fragrant jewels of the 
night which shine 
while other lilies sleep 
Y OUR pool will put on evening dress 
every night if you plant these ma¬ 
jestic varieties of night-blooming 
lilies. There is something fanciful about 
the way the dazzling blooms open as the 
others are closing in sleep, and remain 
open all night, reluctantly closing the 
next morning when the sun again gets 
bright. On cloudy days they sometimes 
remain open all day as well. Night¬ 
blooming lilies will surely make your 
pool a show place during the hours when 
the grounds are most usually enjoyed by 
family and guests. 
Note: All Lilies are sent prepaid. 
RED SHADES 
FRANK TRELEASE. The most popular lily of its 
type because of its rich dark crimson color. 
See illustration page 9. $1.50. 
RUBRA ROSEA. The most productive of all the 
Nymphaeas. Our exhibition plant usually has 
5 to 8 blooms open at one time and is always en¬ 
thusiastically praised. There is some question about 
the color of the lily corresponding to this name 
as the original Nymphaea rubra differs in various 
localities in India. Our strain is a rosy carmine and 
shaped due to the unusual shape of its petals which 
their base and taper to a long point. (Illustrated in 
8.) $1.50. 
New White Night-Blooming Lily— Missouri 
(Pring—1933) 
For many years the finest of the white night-bloomers has been Juno. For 
form and beauty nothing has equalled the lovely pink Sturtevant. Now Mr. 
Pring presents MISSOURI, a fine, white flowering variety with the form and 
beauty of Sturtevant but without its touchy temperament. It will begin to 
bloom much sooner than Juno and is far more dependable. The young leaves 
are a light, copperish brown when they first appear but soon develop to a 
dark green with deeply serrated edges. A supreme beauty. $5. 
is quite star- GEO. HUSTER. A free-growing and free-blooming variety with 
are broad at flowers that are from 10 to 12 inches across and crimson in 
color on page color. Surely this is the most desirable member of the night-bloom¬ 
ing water lilies. $2. 
DEVONSHIRE. The bright rosy red flowers of this lily bloom well 
out of the water. This plant is one of the most desirable of the 
night-bloomers. $1.50. 
ABOVE: The above picture was sent to us by Mrs. Oliver W. 
Peirce, 625 Lingle Ave., Lafayette, Ind., who writes as follows: 
“My dear Mr. Tricker:' 
“I am sending you a few pictures of the pool showing how lovely 
your water lilies are. The water lilies have done splendidly—and 
especially the Blue Beauty.’* 
BIGHT; Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Taylor, 812 Richie Ave., Lima, Ohio, 
built this attractive pool and stocked it with Tricker’s lilies. We are 
in receipt of this fine letter from them : 
“Gentlemen : Enclosed you will find several views of our pool and 
we wish at this time to express our appreciation of the four lilies 
you sent us. 
“We feel that you can see the wonderful growth these lilies have 
made in five weeks. Some days we have as many as ten blooms. 
“Frank Trelease is a never-ending source of delight for ourselves 
and the neighborhood.” 
H. C. HAARSTICK. Another delightful new night-bloomer. A con¬ 
spicuous variety owing to its large well-shaped flowers and 
copper-colored leaves. The flowers are brilliant red in color ; a most 
satisfying shade that will contrast beautifully with other lilies. We 
know if you like red lilies this one is sure to please. This variety 
comes from the same source as Emily Grant Hutchings. (Illustrated 
in color on front cover.) $2.50. 
WHITE VARIETIES 
JUNO (Dentata Superba). The most perfect modern flower developed 
by cultivation from the sacred white Lotus of Egyptian tradi¬ 
tion. Blooms easily 8 to 12 inches across and persists all summer 
and fall, making the plant a magnificent sight in the morning. 
Has a flower of great decorative charm since it is composed of very 
broad, heavy petals that open widely revealing wide, flat, saffron 
yellow stamens. (Illustrated on page 8.) $2. 
LOTUS DENTATA. A gorgeous white night bloomer. $1.50.
