The recent “ALL COLOR — ALL SEASON” and “PARADE IN WHITE” plant assortments went over so big 
with our customers that orders exceeded even our most optimistic estimates. Consequently, we are sold out of many 
of the different numbers and it has been necessary to withdraw both offerings. We received so many comments such 
as “Plants arrived in wonderful shape and we are well pleased” and “It's a grand way to buy orchids, but how 
cbout some larger sized plants” that we have decided to offer one more this year. And it’s a good one because 
never before have such fine flowering sized white orchids been offered at these low prices. 
Yes, it is getting late in the year to ship orchids but our Shipping Department Personnel are bragging about 
the quality of their work. They tell me that if I can get the orders, they will get the plants to you without damage 
by any cold weather that might develop. They have some new insulation material that they think a lot of, so I 
will go along with their recommendation and guarantee safe arrival of the plants against cold weather damage! 
This offering has been designed for those who want to see results quickly from new hybrids and are not 
content to wait for the little fellows to grow up. The 4” size may flower on the leading growth but most probably 
you will have to wait for the following one. The 5” plant is of a size to flower on the leading growth. There are 
so many fine things included in this offering that I could rave about that there isn’t much use in doing it. However, 
you might like to know that our R-373 and R-374 are hybrids that produce those lovely, leathery, little whites of the 
same strain that were used in Princess Elizabeth’s wedding bouquet and which we are popularizing as ROYAL 
BOUQUET ORCHIDS. 
But wait . . . . we must be getting the Christmas spirit early! We will send you one plant free for 
every three different varieties that you order from each size group! We will send you two free plants if you order 
all six varieties listed in either group, four free ones if you order two of all six varieties, etc. The free plants will 
be of the same size as those you order. You may request that the free plants be either white, white with purple 
lip or lavender but the choice of variety is ours. We have a lot of nice unflowered plants around the houses but 
not enough of each one to list on an offering. The free plants will come from these although it may be one of 
those listed but which you did not order. We will not duplicate a variety that you ordered. And don’t worry 
about the quality of what we may send. If we didn’t think they were good, I assure you that we would not have 
them in 4” and 5” pots now. 
Orders will be accepted for one or more plants and they are available for immediate shipment. The 
plants would also make a wonderful Christmas or Birthday gift for any orchid enthusiast. Just send us your 
enclosure and we will send the package to arrive whenever you wish. Please make your selection from the lists 
below.
