Name, Parentage and Description 
C. CLEMENTINE GOLDFARB X C. PEGEEN FITZGERALD 
An exceptionally strong growing and very large White for November and Decem- 
should be the result of this union of two grand White Hybrids. It is not at all 
uncommon to have Clementine Goldfarb make two growths per year on a single 
lead plant. Flowers are always very large and it is not unusual to see flowers to 
the number of four on a stem. C. Pegeen Fitzgerald ean always be remembered 
for its paper whiteness and very fine form. 
LC. BOU PHILIPPO (LC. WINDERMERE “A.M.” X C. MOSSIAE “R.E. 
PATTERSON”) 
This cross has been so outstanding in earlier crosses which we have bloomed that 
we have repeated it over and over again. Season was one of the main questions 
in making this cross. Mossiae in the make-up has taken care of this. Blooming 
time is March and April, making it a valuable Easter Hybrid. The shape is always 
very good, the texture is far better than straight Mossiae and the color is always 
darker than Mossiae. In fact, we simply say it is a glorified Mossiae. 
C. ROYANNA X C. CARMEN 
Here again we make a bid for a May and June Hybrid of good quality to cover 
a sparse period in Hybrids. Both parents were of a very dark color and had 
exceptionally well colored dark lips. A strong growing plant should be the result. 
C. MOSSIAE “R.E. PATTERSON” X LC. PRINCESS MARGARET (BEST) 
There has always been a distinct shortage of fine Hybrids for Spring blooming. 
This particular cross was made with the idea of alleviating this situation. We 
expect a Hybrid very similar to Lc. George Baldwin during the Easter and Spring 
months from this particular cross. Fine growth is certainly assured as both par- 
ents are very excellent growers. The texture should be very good as well as the 
color, both parents having these qualities. 
LC. INTEGRITY X C. TRIANAE “ORANGE LIP VARIETY” 
The months of December and January are scarce months for Cattleyas. We hope 
to bridge this particular period with this Hybrid. The Hybrid used always blooms 
during the months of December and January. The Trianae is an exceptionally 
dark type of great substance. 
C. MOSSIAE “REINECKIANA” (YOUNG’S VAR.) X C. GIGAS “F.M.B.” 
Earlier buyers of this old cross remade with identical parents have been most 
anxious to enlarge their stock of this great Hybrid. Strangely enough all of our 
earlier batch bloom in January, February and March. The flowers are large and 
are well shaped. They are paper white in the sepals and petals. The lips are large 
and very interesting. 
LC. SAGANA “EASTER VARIETY” X C. MOSSIAE “R. E. PATTERSON” 
This is a repeat cross for us. We have made it again because all of the earlier 
batches have proved most successful in making a large dark free growing Hybrid, 
for the Easter season. 
LC. BOU PHILIPPO (LC. WINDERMERE “A.M.” VARIETY X C. MOSSIAE 
“OLIVER LINES”) 
For several years we have been blooming this particular cross under our No. 285 
and we have had some very excellent types. One of the main reasons for the 
great value in this cross is its particular season, we have always cut a great 
number of flowers for Easter. It can be handled a good deal like Mossiae and its 
grand performance as far as season, quantity of flowers and fine growing qual- 
ities are concerned, has prompted us to remake this cross again and again. To 
date it has been one of our finest type Mossiae Hybrids. We repeat this cross 
with the identical parents which have made No. 285.
