C. ENID VAR. MANDARIN X LC. HELEN WILMER 
VAR. SUPERBA (see Spring catalog) _.................. Spring 
This remarkable Enid—one of the finest and darkest—crossed with our 
fine Wilmer. A cross that is practically certain to produce form, color 
and floriferousness with strong growth. The season should be February, 
March and April. 
+ 777—C. HARDYANA ALBA X C. LORANORE 
+ 790 
GR EEN WOuw) Se Ss 
(C. Lorna alba x C. Eleanore alba)....June 
A fine and dependable June flowering white with purple lip. Desirable and 
useful—Both parents have good constitution and are free flowering. 
C. HOPE DILLON ALBA (C. Harold alba x C. Princess 
Royal alba) x C. Priscilla alba var. Snowwhite_...Spring 
The Hope Dillon is free flowering—clear white with rich, dark lip, yellow 
areas. This Priscilla we consider the best variety of that hybrid having 
exceptional form—white with dark lips. Season anticipated is Feb. through 
June into July. 
C. BALLANTINEANA VAR. ALBERTS X LC. FLORIDA 
(Le. Red Oak x Le. Sargon)....Fall 
Lc. Florida is one of the finest Fall Hybrids ever flowered. Flowers are 
large with very dark sepals and petals with a velvet ruby lip. Texture of 
the flowers is superb. This combined with C. Ballantineana var. Alberts 
will make a superior fall hybrid. It should have the characteristic of making 
two growths a year which will flower separately and thereby spread the 
season from August through December. See Spring 1949 catalog for 
picture of C. Ballantineana var. Alberts. 
C. BALLANTINEANA VAR. ALBERTS X LC. MIAMI 
VAR. GLORY (Le. Runah x Le. Sargon).................. Fall 
Lc. Miami var. Glory is another glorious hybrid of the richest hue and 
equals the Lc. Florida described above. This cross should have same ex- 
cellent qualities of #787. These two crosses should replace the average 
Fall hybrids that are so plentiful at this time of year with a superior 
quality that will always have demand. 
Co -ENID (250) SX LG MTAM eee ee Various 
Another of our very fine Enids—fine color, shape and an unusually large 
frilled lip-like a Brasso-cattleya. A very richly colored Mimai was used. 
Large, fine shape and the very heavy texture that distinguishes all our Le. 
Miami. Again this should produce prolific bloomers. Seedlings are fast 
growers. 
LC. HELEN WILMER VAR. SUPERBA X BC. 
CLIFTONIT VAR. MAGNIPICAT ee Spring 
This should be an improved Brassolaeliacattleya hybrid that flowers during 
the scarce period of March through April. Both parents have all that is 
desired in an orchid—size—shape—color—texture and season. We predict 
this to be a prize winner at the Spring Orchid Shows.
