Sentences with HIPPEASTRUM (5)
What use is it to succeed in hybridizing a Hippeastrum procera with a Pancratium Amancaes, after over six hundred attempts in ten years, and then spend three years a-hand-nursing the seedlings, and then your master won't take enough interest in the thing to pay your fare up to London to the exhibition with 'em? That's what 'ud break any man's heart.” “Quite true,” Thorpe assented, with patrician kindliness.
See "Origin of Species," Edition I., page 251, for Herbert's observations on self-impotence in Hippeastrum.
AMARYLLIS Hippeastrum The majority of the named varieties are expensive, and a very considerable saving is effected by raising plants from seed.
This case of the Crinum leads me to refer to a most singular fact, namely, that there are individual plants of certain species of Lobelia and of some other genera, which can be far more easily fertilised by the pollen of another and distinct species, than by their own pollen; and all the individuals of nearly all the species of Hippeastrum seem to be in this predicament.
This result has, also, been confirmed by other observers in the case of Hippeastrum with its sub-genera, and in the case of some other genera, as Lobelia, Passiflora and Verbascum.
