Hofzinser’s Magic Greenhouse. Flein: Rüdiger Deutsch, ca. 2000. A variegated bouquet at the center of a glass dial springs apart at the command of the magician, forming a flower-dotted glass dial. Three cards bearing images of flowers are then chosen, and the pointer at the center of the dial divines the chosen flowers. Finally, seeds from the chosen flowers are planted in a metal vase filled with loam. Moments later, roses bloom from the vase which may be distributed to the audience. Complete with battery-operated wand, flower cards, glass dial with gimmicked pointer, and clockwork blooming flower vase with imitation flowers. Height of dial on stand 23”. One of six manufactured. Hallmarked.For a complete description of the routine, see “The Magic of J.N. Hofzinser” (Hatch translation, at page 58).
