Immediately, upon its introduction, Van Meeuwen and Sons adopted the ex- 
cellent Dr. Luyten method of propagation by vegetative means to further 
perfect their Hybrid Amaryllis. Previously they had spent long years and 
diligent effort to maintain true colors and characteristics by propagating from 
seed. Thus there was already a large stock of good Hybrid Amaryllis with 
which to work, and from which was produced the superior Hybrid Amaryllis 
clones now of such note. These are the “Superiora Hybrid Amaryllis”, widely 
admired for their very large, beautifully shaped blooms, and the ease with 
which they can be forced into bloom right in the home.

These are the famous “Herald Amaryllis’” which are attaining such 
widespread popularity because they can be forced into bloom for 
Christmas if planted in early November. When planted after Christ- 
mas they will still come into bloom weeks ahead of any other varieties 
on the market planted at the same time. 
They are specially treated by a secret process developed by the Dutch 
Laboratory of Plant Physiology. They are guaranteed to bloom within 
the amazingly short time of 60 days, and the later they are planted 
in the season the fewer days will be required to bring them into bloom.
