Name, Parentage and Description 
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. WINDERMERE X C. MOSSIAE “R. E. PATTERSON” 
This is a repeat cross of which we have bloomed three other crosses with the 
identical parents. We are very certain the results again will be as before. The 
flowers fill a great need for exceptional Hybrids for the Spring season; a season 
which, at the present time, is devoid of quality Hybrids in quantity. 
LC. SAGANA “EASTER VARIETY” X C. MOSSIAE “R.E. PATTERSON” 
Please refer to description under No. 564. 
LC. BOU PHILIPPO (LC. WINDERMERE “A.M.” VAR. 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 
qualities 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. 
BLC. EVA PATTERSON X C. BELGICA “A.M.” VARIETY 
Our quest here is for fine Hybrids for December and January covering the Holi- 
day season of the year. Both parents are very strong growers. Flowers should 
also be very large. The C. Belgica which was used received an award since at 
the A.O.S. meeting in December 1947. 
LC. WINDERMERE “A.M.” X C. ENID XXXX 
We have remade this cross with identical parents as our earlier batch has been 
so very satisfactory. The flowers of the previous batch were large, dark and 
well shaped, and texture was very good. The plant is a very strong grower. 
LC. DERRYNANE “VAR. HENRIETTA PATTERSON” X C. ROYANA 
(EXTRA FINE) 
Two exceptional Hybrids were used here. Le. Derrynane is a very good Hybrid 
derived from Le. Princess Margaret. C. Royana was described elsewhere in this 
list. 
LC. HELEN WILMER “A.M.” VAR. X LC. ALTESSE 
Both Le. Helen Wilmer and the Lc. Altesse which were used were exceptionally 
dark fiowers. Whenever Helen Wilmer has been used it has always lent quality 
to the resulting Hybrid. Le. Altesse is a very strong grower which always bears 
fine textured large flowers. This should make a similar Hybrid to our newest 
Hybrid Le. Governor Gore. 
C. MOSSIAE “REINECKIANA” CYOUNG’S VAR.) X C. GIGAS “F.M.B.” 
Please refer to description under No. 565. 
C. MOUNT RAPHOYAL X C. MOSSIAE “R.E. PATTERSON” 
The Hybrid used on C. Mossiae “R. E. Patterson” was an extremely dark and 
well shaped flower of great substance. The lip of this particular Hybrid was 
very dark with large yellow eyes. The flower over all was very large. We again 
use our old standby, Mossiae “R.E. Patterson”.
