description for "Amaryllis: Hippeastrum 'Record'"
'Record' reigns supreme in the regal amaryllis family. This double-flowering phenomenon breaks all performance records for grace and beauty. White blooms with dark pink blushes are the crowning glory of 'Double Record.' The foolproof bulbs each produce 2 stately stems--20 inches tall--followed by royal flushes of 5 to 6 flowers per stalk. Perhaps some day there will be a worthy heir to this flowery throne, but as long as it blooms, 'Double Record' rules. -- edited by pbcouchman
