Super Botania by Abbott’s

There is no doubt this is a stunning display and so easy to use.  But the price has really sky rocketed from the first ones produced c. 1948:

• 1948 – $57
• 1976 – $260
• 1987 – $375
• 1993 – $475
• 1997 – $550
• 2017 – $1,100
• 2024 – $4,000 🙂

Not sure how many they are selling at the current $4,000 price – I guess they don’t want to make them anymore.  There is a lot of work in these beauties and there is no doubt the end product really does look amazing. I was also surprised how easy they are to set, no rings or extra utilities.  Just fold them down with one hand and place the cone over them.

If you want to add some breathtaking color to your act time to start saving 🙂

Effect:  This most spectacular flower production has many features that should not be overlooked. A small chromed metal cover is used, 11″ tall and 6″ in diameter at its widest point. The cover is shown empty–the audience may look through it from BOTH ends!

The performer may push his arm through it to show it empty. This cover is set upon a flat green board. A single bloom flower dart is dropped though the cover–the cover is lifted and the dart is seen to be sticking upright in the green board.

This sequence is repeated several times in rapid succession. The last time the cover is lifted, instead of a single flower dart, a giant bouquet of flowers is revealed! The bouquet is nearly twice as tall as the cover (approximately 24″ spherical).

It is hard to believe that such a huge display could be concealed in the small chrome cover that was shown empty so convincingly at the start! All parts are mechanically perfect. The flowers are our best grade feathers.

If you are looking for novelty, surprise and mystery–look no further. This is it! Abbott’s Super Botania contains eighteen blooms. No skill required.
