- 1846, Joseph Paxton, Magazine of Botany and Register of Flowering Plants:
- From all we can learn, it has never flowered till the specimens have acquired age and considerable size; nevertheless, we are far from believing it impossible to obtain blossoms from much younger and dwarfer plants.
- 1999, L. H. Bailey, Handbook of the Multiplication of Plants, page 223:
- These cutting-plants, if 6 to 10 inches high when set in the open, make excellent bloom that season, although generally giving dwarfer plants than those grown from tubers planted directly in the ground.
