White Cypripediums 



Here we list a number of well known ''white"’ varieties, a collection of which we have been 
endeavoring to build up for a number of years. When well grown unquestionably these are among 
the most beautiful orchids in cultivation and while they are not pure white, they are in varying 
degrees close to the much sought-after pure white. 
We are glad to be able to offer what we believe is the most complete stock of white cypri- 
pediums in commercial channels in the United States. 
ALBION {niveum x Astarte) : ; f On Application 
This small dainty cypripedium of perfect Proportions is a delight to the eye. It is 
snow-white with the exception of a touch of light oriental green against the faintest 
flush of yellow on the column and the smallest amount of minute spots near the 
center. 
ALBION, F.C.C., R.H.S. . : me ey : ; ; : : ; : On Application 
A fine form of the above. 
ASTARTE [insigne var. Sanderae x Psyche) . 
Both this and Chastity compare very favorably with the most modern whites for 
size, form and all-round quality, Astarte being a slightly clearer white than its 
hybrid, Chastity. 
BOLTONII (Parentage Uncertain) . : : : d : 4 : " q 
The flower is wax-like, rounded and purest white except for a very few minute dark 
spots on lower part of the dorsal.

CHASTITY (Astarte x Nell Gwynne) . : 4 a 
One of the best of the whites. Of good size, exceedingly pleasing form, the flow- 
ers when first open are pale greenish-cream but as they mature this turns to creamy- 
white. It is strong growing and definitely one of the best. 
F, C. PUDDLE (Actaeus Bianca x Astarte). Ho Me EA ee ; 
Excellent shape and texture, glistening white except for tinting of pale yellow on 
the staminode. Rounded, niveum type lip.
