TRAYS 
As we have reported previously we 
have discontinued the use of 134”, 2” 
and 2%” pots and use in their stead 
trays 2” x 6” size which hold 8 - 10 
strong young plants. When we take our 
plants out of the trays they are ready 
for 8” and 4” pots. 
The 1” to 2” plants in trays are the 

VANDA TERES AT THE ORCHID JUNGLE 
Var. Andersonti 15” Cuttings — $3.50 ea. 
equivalent of 134’ pot plants; while the 
2” to 8” plants are strong 2%” pot 
plants. Each size are well established 
in the trays and can go 6 to 8 months 
before a shift will be necessary. 
Don’t confuse these tray grown plants 
with community pot plants. These plants 
are much heavier than plants ever be- 
come in community pots as they have 
plenty of room and root room. They are 
heavy, stocky plants better than most 
134” to 2%” pot plants. 
These are all fine crosses and are 
priced very low when their size and the 
quality of their parentage is considered. 
Try a few, we know you'll be pleased 
with them, they’re really a very great 
value. 
No. 196—Le. Altesse « C. Marstoni— 
Two of our finest late winter early 
spring bloomers. Marstoni is like a 
large dark Mossiae while Altesse is a 
heavy beautifully proportioned mas- 
sive flower with a very brilliant lip. 
We expect some very fine plants from 
this cross to bloom in the difficult 
February - March season. 
8 to 10 plants 11%4”-2” tall........ $10.00 
No. 216 - Le. Altesse « C. Mendellii—
