DAY BLOOMING TROPICAL 
WATER LILIES (Concluded) 
PURPLE 
JUPITER. Purple Zanzibar. The most 
popular of the Zanzibar lilies. The ROYAL PURPLE 
flowers are a deep blue with purple 
tints and very attractive. This day¬ 
blooming African Lily has characteristic bell-shaped flowers and very many stamens 
that are strikingly different from all other water lilies in form and fragrance. The 
plant is very adaptable and thrives whether the roots are confined in a small pot or 
in a large box. A superb variety. $1.75. 
*AUGUST KOCH. As a variety suitable for all general purposes there is none that 
surpasses August Koch. It belongs to the same group as Dauben, Mrs. Woodrow 
Wilson, and Panama-Pacific. We have had this variety continue in bloom for four 
years in our greenhouses. The flowers are 7 to 8 inches in diameter and open for four 
to six days. The sepals are purplish lilac and the petals pale wistaria-violet (Ridge¬ 
way color chart). Foliage strong and attractive. (See colored illustration on page 8.) 
$ 2 . 00 . 
ALICE 
WHITE 
TRICKER 
ALICE TRICKER. A very prolific white 
day-blooming water lily. The flowers 
are somewhat larger than Mrs. Geo. H. 
Pring and a clearer white. A vigorous 
grower and does exceedingly well in out¬ 
door pools. Foliage a pleasing green. 
$2 50. 
MRS. GEO. H. PRING. (Pring 1922.) 
(S.A.F. Silver Medal ) A new and 
novel type that produces numbers of 
large fragrant, white flowers with point¬ 
ed petals. Very attractive among the 
pinks and blues in a pond and excellent 
when used alone in a formal setting. It 
is the counterpart of the Mrs. Whit¬ 
aker in pure white. Petals broader at 
the base and more pointed at the tip. 
Has been known to produce 13-inch 
flowers, but like the Whitaker, will also 
bloom in very small quarters. Will com¬ 
bine with any color. $1.50. 
MRS. GEO. H. PRING 
*PANAMA-PACIFIC. This variety was produced by the late William Tricker. The 
buds, as they come out of the water, are bronzy green spotted with a reddish 
brown. An excellent variety for the conservatory in winter. $2. 
*ROYAL PURPLE. This handsome new lily is identical in growth and habit to that 
excellent variety, Panama Pacific, except that the color is a glowing, royal pur¬ 
ple. This novelty will add a note of regal splendor to your pool. $2.50.
