TRICKER 
There are no flowers more beautiful than Water Lilies. Only those who 
have enjoyed the loveliness which water Lilies bring to the Garden Pool 
from June until frost can fully comprehend their beauty. Of all garden 
flowers, Water Lilies might be said to give the most beauty and greatest 
satisfaction for the time and effort required in their care. In fact, Water- 
Lilies might be considered the supreme garden flower. And, although 
Water Lilies are the most magnificent of flowers, they are by no means 
difficult to grow. We are constantly receiving enthusiastic letters from 
customers in every section of the country recording their delight with the 
ease with which Tricker’s Water Lilies are grown. 
Water Plants succeed under the most trying conditions, as they are not 
affected by severe heat or droughts. A lily pool requires no weeding—no 
watering—no hoeing, nor is any special gardening experience necessary. 
Just make your selection from this book and the job is done. Tricker can 
supply you with the necessary plant food to insure sturdy, healthy grow¬ 
ing plants. 
We wish to extend an invitation to all plant lovers to visit the Tricker 
Water Gardens at Saddle River, N.J., and Independence, Ohio. There you 
can see our great variety of aquatic plants brought from the far corners 
of the world. These Water Gardens hold a wealth of interest for everyone, 
whether he be a water lily enthusiast, a tropical fish fan or simply a lover 
of beautiful flowers.
