ile De Phalaenopsis, alba x D. a 
Phaikencpsid have asked: ” “When are you going to nave some of the white variety? 
I now have a few flasks of this most rare and choice variety of D. Phalaenopsis, 
but only a VERY few. So if you want one, please do not delay! 
H57-F OD. Phalaenopsis, Dixon strain X Self 
By careful selection and inebreeding this darkest, most vivid-strain of D. 
Phalaenopsis was developed. These striking crimson-purple blooms, 33-inch and 
larger, on long, graceful sprays, stay in bloom from six weeks to two months, 
often blooming on the current year's cane and also on the previous year's cane. 
My pricing of these flasks was influenced by the limited number available.

# 572-F C. December Snow X C. Angelina (Both parents PURE WHITE) 
The Seed parent was one of the newer white erosses, first bloomed on the duPont 
Estate in 1944. A cross of C. trianae 3 var. The Baron and C. Edithiae, it was a 
huge, bold, heavy=textured PURE WHITE bloom with gold high in throat. Angelina, 
also a large, pure white, has a long ancestry of white blooms in its geneology. 
qol3-F C. December Snow X GC. Benson's 7/26 (Both parents PURE WHITE) 
If Benson registered his Number 26, 1 do not have the name of it as yet. But 
the bloom, like December Snow, was pure, PURE white, of glistening, heavy- 
textured perfection; rounded petals; S=inch spread. Spring.

158-F Qe C. Speciosissima, Stanleyii X C. Alwynii var. Jane Froman 
The snowy, white variety of Specicsissima carried she seed pod, One of three, 
well-held, nicely rounded fragrant blooms with a rusy splotch back of the lip; 
gold in throat. The Alwynii, named in honor of songstress, Jane Fromen, came 
from the Gore collection. One of the showiest of whites with crimson-purple 
lips, its parents were Enid alba and Amabilis alba. Exceedingly fine, well- 
held Spring albas should result from this cross. 
qA2-F C. Maggie Raphael Alba X Le Cynthia Alba 
this reversal of the previously offered 4 42 is expected to be equally fine, as 
this white form of Maggie Raphael was outstanding for its size, shape and vivid- 
ness of lip. Broad and ruffled, it was like crimson velvet, with the Dowiana 
fan of golden veins in throat. Crossed with an equally ano Cynthie, the re- 
sults should be a prolific display of gleaming whites with colored lips, Decem- 
ber through June. © 

#86-F Le Canhamiane Alba (C. Mossiae, Reineckiana X L. Purpurata, Orchid Knoll)

many lovely color plates of "Canham Alba" I*ve been receiving requests for this 
floriferous Juno albae As many times as this cross hes been repeated, it is al- 
ways popular for weddings, graduation corsages and Mother's Day.
