LAELIA ANCEPS VAR. SANDERIANA | 
We have recently acquired a fine collection of Laelia anceps and many of 
its varieties. The variety “Sanderiana” is pure white, with gold and a small spot 
of purple in the lip. 
We have many divisions of these fine varieties to offer and invite your cor- 
respondence. According to the variety, these plants are priced from $5 up. 
Winter-flowering, fine for decorative purposes as well as for cut flowers. 
PHALAENOPSIDS 
Many of the Phalaenopsids listed here are outstanding crosses and will pro- 
duce Show flowers. In an effort to aid our customers in making their selections, 
the merits of each cross have been indicated—whether it is outstanding for its 
decorative value, cut flowers, etc. 
We wish to call your attention, particularly, to the beauty of the pink-flower- 
ing hybrids and to remind you of their value as a decorative plant. The flowers 
on a spike of a pink-flowering hybrid open within a period of two weeks and then 
remain in flower for from six to eight weeks, depending upon the care given 
them. With the white-flowering Phalaenopsis hybrids, the buds open more 
slowly and the flowers which opened first (at the lower end of the spray) wither 
before all the blooms have opened. However, the white-flowering hybrids are 
in greater demand for cut flowers. 
No. 282 (P. ELISABETHAE X P. FONTAINEBLEAU) X (P. GILLES 
GRATIOT X P. SCHILLERIANA ) 
A hybrid which we believe has excellent possibilities. This P. Pamela 
(P. Elisabethae x P. Fontainebleau) had a trace of pink on the back 
of the sepals and the flowers were over 4” in diameter. The white flow- 
ers of P. Monique (P. Gilles Gratiot x P. Schilleriana) were 514” in 
diameter. If you are interested in large white flowers, we believe this 
to be a superior hybrid. Vigorous grower. 2” pots, $2.50 each; lots of 
10 or more, $2.25 each. — 
No. 281 P. DORIS X (P. FONTAINEBLEAU X P. GILLES GRATIOT) 
A fine cross using two white parents of excellent form. (The cross be- 
tween Fontainebleau and Gilles Gratiot is P. Nuulukea.) 2” $2.50 ea. 
No, 271 P. ELINOR X (P. ROTHSCHILDIANA X P. FONTAINEBLEAU) 
A fine pink hybrid. Flowers should be large and have excellent form. 
Wonderful decorative value. (The cross between Rothschildiana and 
Fontainebleau is P. Kaalawai. ) 2” $2.00 each. 
No. 272 P. HONOLULU X (P. ROTHSCHILDIANA X 
P. FONTAINEBLEAU ) 
Another fine pink hybrid. P. Honolulu produces sprays of flowers 
' several feet in length. Excellent decorative value. 2” $2.00 each.
