AMARCRINUM HOWARDII 
Our Remarkable Novelty 
During many years of consistent and unremitting work in the 
cross-breeding of plants we have produced many notable nov- 
elties and the most conspicuous of them all is Amarcrinum 
Howardii. Of such outstanding character and worth is this 
unique bulbous plant that it won from the Royal Horticultural 
Society of Great Britain the coveted solid-silver Cory Cup, 
awarded annually for the most meritorious novelty exhibited 
in its show in London, where the whole world is represented 
in keen competition. That rich trophy has been taken out of 
Europe but once and the fact of the premier honor coming to 
this firm is a high tribute to our organization. Amarcrinum 
Howardii is a true bi-generic hybrid, one of a comparatively 
few in existence, and a cross of Crinum-Moorei on Amaryllis 
Belladonna. 
This new plant is useful either for growing in pots or the open 
garden and it is showy wherever placed, bearing flowers of 
a beautiful soft pink in great trusses, with stems four feet long. 
These high heads of bloom make it valuable for effective use 
in vases or otherwise as cut flowers. Its color tone is exquisite 
and appealing, and more so because of its rare qualities. 
Price per 10, $12.50; Per 100, $100.00. 
THE WORLD’S PREMIER STRAIN 
We are now in a position to offer you 
bulbs of this new race at very moderate 
prices. For the Fall delivery season of 
1944 we will have ready a splendid stock 
of firm, heavy bulbs, all strictly flowering 
size. They bear blooms of immense pro- 
portion, of model form, with a surprising 
brilliancy and range of color, from the 
pure white ground colors with their deli- 
cate markings of rose, red, carmine and 
other tints, to the glorious dazzling scar- 
lets, crimsons, maroons, rose and bright 
red self colors, or the innumerable hand- 
somely bi-colored or tri-colored varieties. 
This strain will leave little to be desired. 
The blooms attain an enormous diameter 
of nine to ten inches and over. The flowers 
are flat and spreading, with short necks, 
borne erect on stems of 2!/2 to 3 feet in 
length, displaying the flower to great ad- 

vantage.
