Flowering Size Divisions Of Exhibition And Stud Plants 
For those Orchid connoisseurs and breeders who want plants of proven 
quality, we have many fine things to offer this year. It has always 
been our policy to never sell the entire plant of an outstanding 
orchid and, as a result, we have been forced to turn down some tempt- 
ing offers for plants that were seen in bloom by some of our customers. 
During the past years we have picked out some 5000 plants as being the 
best in our collection of about 75,000 mature plants. We now have for 
sale divisions of some of these plants. Since we have only one or per- 
haps two divisions of each plant to offer, it is impractical to list 
them here. We have prepared a separate listing of each division that 
is currently available and we invite inquiries for this list. 
In order to acquaint new prospects for this type of plant with the 
wide range of colors included in these lists, we have chosén five of 
our best known hybrids to list here. They are as follows; 
C. BOW BELLS (C. Edithae White Empress X C. Suzanne Hye) 
This outstanding white orchid is beautiful beyond 
description. A most vigorous grower. Produces large 
«well shaped heavy textured pure white blooms with 
lovely yellow throats. Normal blooming season is 
fall and second lead blooms occur frequently. 
LC. DERRYNANE (Lc. Balkis X Lc. Princess Margaret) 
A very large dark lavender orchid with darker lip. 
A very fine well shaped heavy textured flower that 
rates among the best in the fall when competition 
for quality is the most intense. 
C. STALIN (C. Angus X C. Gloriette) 
For those who like contrasting cooors in their orchids 
this is a very desirable flower. Blooms are large 
and very well shaped. Sepals and petals are an 
attractive clear pastel lavender with the ruffled 
lip being of a deep magenta color. Flowering season 
extends from late spring to early summer. 
LC. SNOWDRIFT (Lc. Cynthia, var. Model X C. Annette) 
A well known lovely white with purple lip that blooms 
in the fall. Large flowers of good form and texture. 
This hybrid has been extensively used as a breeder. 
LC. DERNA (Lc. Nuggett X C. Dowiana, aurea) 
This is one of our best yellows and we haxe used this 
hybrid widely as a parent. Colors in petals and sepals 
vary among plants of this cross from a lovely chartreuse 
to deep golden yellow. Deep purple isthmus type lips 
predominate, although a very few plants have the full lip. 
All of these plants are individually priced when in fl wer and the 
plant is assigned a permanent identification number. The divisions we 
are offering consist of a minimum of three bulbs and is of a size to 
flower on the next lead. If you are interested in purchasing any of 
this stock, write us and our complete list will be sent to you at once.
