Seedlings of Cattleya and Allied Genera 
This list of orchid hybrids represents many of the finest crosses available. 
The stock we are selling has been grown for our own cut-flower production as 
well as for plant sales. These crosses have been made by our firm and by many 
of the finest hybridists in the U.S.A.; here you have the opportunity to avail 
yourself of the benefit of the years of study and the knowledge of experts. The 
parents used were selected for their outstanding qualities—shape of flower, color, 
texture—and another very important characteristic—time of flower. 
We wish to advise the amateur grower of the great importance in selecting 
plants which generically represent the traits which they desire in flowers. Poor 
orchids require the same time to produce as good ones. It is wise to select your 
orchid stock with great caution so’ that when the plants bloom you will be proud 
of them. 
2 SEEDLINGS 
No. 94 LC. WINDERMERE X LC. HELEN WILMER (Le. Frank Lind) 
This is not an easy hybrid to grow, but we strongly recommend it if 
you want to grow a few exhibition hybrids. $2.50 
No. 97 LC. PRINCESS MARGARET X C. ROYANA 
Two parents of outstanding quality. Both flowers are fine dark hybrids. 
C. Hardyana of C. Royana (C. Mt. Royal x C. Hardyana) will un- 
doubtedly impart a fine pencilled-yellow throat with dark labellum. 
To bloom May, June, July. ‘Sl. 1D 
No. 177 C. FABIA X (LC. ELISSA X LC. VALENCIA ) 
The pollen parent (Lc. Elissa x Le. Valencia) is an outstanding hybrid. 
The flowers measure about 8” in diameter; a fine dark color. The com- 
bination with C. Fabia should certainly produce excellent dark flowers. 
We think a lot of this cross. Fall flowering. $1.75 
No. 178 (BC. PENELOPE X BC. PENELOPE ) 
Excellent parentage for a fine dark Brasso. The vellow eyes in the throat 
of C. gigas should predominate in this hybrid. The flowering season 
will be variable. Shi7s 
No. 184 BLC. NANETTE X C. WHITE EMPRESS, F.C.C. 
Blc. Nanette is one of the outstanding white Blcs. (The parent is pic- 
tured in Stuart Low's catalog.) This will be an extremely valuable 
hybrid of fine quality. Winter. $1.75
