Colonel Lindberg. In 1929 the William Tricker nurseries introduced this special hybrid sometimes known as "Lindy". Bob Sawyer of William Tricker, Inc. is given credit for this beauty. Bob Sawyer had a hobby as an avid car racer and boat racer in the latter 1920s, so no wonder he would name this special lily after the daring aviation career and pilot Charles Lindberg. The blossoms are very large, dark blue with wide petals and a delightful fragrance. The beautiful flowers are held high above the surface of the water and has attractive mottled leaves. A most beautiful hybrid!

About Tricker's
Store Hours
America's Oldest Water Garden Specialist established in 1892
In the 1920s and 1930s, William Tricker delivered aquatics locally with trucks to customers. This practice is still done today.

William Tricker, Inc.® is a leading grower of aquatic plants, supplier of water garden products and aquarium supplies. Our aquatic greenhouses have produced superior plants for over a century. Customers have been receiving quality aquativ plants and animals that make water gardening easy and fun to do. Purchase with confidence at Tricker's.

William Tricker (born 1853) started his commercial water lily culture in the United States in the late 1800's when he started hybridizing water lilies and studied what helps their growth. The shape, colors and hardiness of his beautiful aquatic plants have withstood the test of time.

In the early 1890's, he earned a reputation as a leader in aquatic lifeforms from hybridiing many water lilies. His water lily nursery and company, in both Ohio and Pennsylvania, was passed down tthrough his family until the 1980's when Richard Lee purchased the Ohio company. In 1892, the first William Tricker mail-order catalog was mailed to customers across the nation, and we still do, today.
