Rand, commemorated in Victoria Randi, died recently in Para, Brazil. He was an expert plantsman, a private gentleman, and wrote interestingly on various horticultural subjects." - American Gardening, Volume 19, 1898, p. 458. Victoria Regia, as shown in this illustration, does not purport to be variety Randi, but similar to that named for Edward S. Rand. "Victoria Randi, the new Crimson Victoria, is a variety of recent introduction ; very similar to the Victoria Regia, except the vertical edges of the leaves are broader, forming a deeper 'tray' and the flowers, opening white, soon change to a deep crimson." - "Botanical guide through the Phipps conservatories in Pittsburg and Allegheny" by Gustave Guttenbert, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, 1894.
