Day Blooming 
Tropical Water Lilies 
(Concluded) 
PINK—Continued 
CASTALIFLORA. Bright pink flowers are moderately 
large, fragrant and altogether charming. Its growth is 
identical to the blue flowering Henry Shaw with which 
it makes an excellent companion. $2.25. 
*PATRICIA. Another Independence hybrid. It is mar- 
velously free blooming and a desirable variety produc- 
ing erimson flowers. It is not as large as most varieties 
and this smallness of size adapts it very well to small 
pools and even tub gardens. It is of the viviparous group 
which bears young plants from the center of the leaf. 
$2.50. 
PINK PEARL. Beautiful pearl pink flowers of medium 
size and produced on stems longer than usual with the 
tropical lilies. Flowers are produced in great profusion, 
making a continuously beautiful display in any pool. 
(See color illustration on page 6.) $2.50. 
CLEVELAND. A Tricker production named in honor of the largest city 
of Ohio and in a suburb of which our gardens are located. The color of 
the petals is rich, rose pink. The petals being slightly pointed make this 
lily distinctive among the pinks. Its marked distinction comes in its 
foliage, for the green leaves are mottled and streaked with chestnut 
brown, giving a most striking contrast. We consider this a splendid 
contribution to the day-blooming tropical lilies. $2.50. 
WHITE 
MRS. GEO. H. PRING. The finest of the really large white day-bloomers. 
A new and novel type that produced numbers of large fragrant, white 
flowers with pointed 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. Whitaker 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 combine with any color. $2.25. 
ALICE TRICKER. A prolific white day-bloomer. With us the flowers 
have always been slightly larger than our original Mrs. Pring. The 
petals seem a little broader and are a little heavier in substance. A very 
vigorous grower doing exceedingly well in outdoor pools. $2.75. 
PURPLE 
JUPITER. The most popular of the Zanzibariensis lilies. Years ago we 
selected one plant of unusual beauty and propagated all of our present 
stock from it. Moderate growth but flowers are of fair size of deepest 
blue in color and with purple tints. The bell shaped flowers are charac- 
teristic of the African lilies. The very many stamens differentiate it 
from other water lilies. Fragrant. Adaptable to all conditions. $2.25. 
*AUGUST KOCH. Without question the outstanding of the viviparous 
water lilies named in honor of August Koch of the Chicago Park 
System. The flowers are 7-8 inches across. They open four to six suc- 
cessive days. The sepals are purplish-lilac in color and the stamens 
pale wistaria-violet in color. Compact in its growth. (See color illus- 
tration on page 8.) $2.50. 
*PANAMA-PACIFIC. The last hybrid produced by the late William 
Tricker. Buds come out of the water, bronzy-green spotted with 
reddish-brown. The petals are plum purple in color. A most adaptable 
lily for either pool or tub culture. $2.25. 
*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 purple. This viviparous novelty will add a 
note of regal splendor to your pool. $2.75. 
YELLOW 
ST. LOUIS. The first yellow Tropical Water Lily. Awarded 
the Henry Shaw Gold Medal by the National Flower Show in 
St. Louis. Produces large yellow flowers and has beautiful 
mottled foliage. It has all the excellence for which Pring 
hybrids are noted. Rarest of all water lilies. This Patented 
Lily is offered exclusively by Tricker. (See color illustration 
on page 2.) $3.50.
