Lily-of-the-Valley 
AMARCRINUM HOWARDI 
A Novel Plant from California 
O NE of the showiest plants introduced in recent years. 
The flower stems are 4 feet or more long, and crowned 
with great trusses of soft pink blooms. In the garden, 
in vases, or in floral decorations, the long spears are effective 
and valuable. The new plant, obtained by crossing Crinum 
Moorei and Amaryllis belladonna, combines the striking quali¬ 
ties of the parents, yet it is entirely different. 
Amarcrinum Howardi may be grown successfully in pots, or 
in the open ground in mild climates, needing no more attention 
than the more common Crinums or Amaryllis. It blooms freely 
indoors or outside. This new plant was awarded the silver Cory 
Cup by the Royal Horticultural Society of Great Britain, as the 
most meritorious novelty in the London show. Only once before 
has this trophy been taken from Europe, thus proving the great 
merit of Amarcrinum Howardi.
