carry the wealth of the Indies with him.”

So it is with growing orchids. We must possess the best in 
order to produce the best. Our stud plants are parents of the 
highest calibre, parents whose listings of awards from the 
ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY would require as much 
or more space than the actual listing of the varieties. 
In using these parents every cross is carefully planned be- 
forehand, since a mistake here would mean years of effort and 
much valuable space wasted. In working out these crosses we 
look well into the future, since we realize that they shall have to 
meet considerably higher standards when their blooming period 
arrives than those applying today. 
It is with pride that we note that where ever we have 
exhibited our plants they have won top honors. The true worth 
of a plant is not what the owner thinks of it, but how it rates 
with impartial judges. As this catalog goes to press our records 
show that 14 of our plants have received certificate awards 
from the Southern California Orchid Society or medals from 
the Cymbidium Society for this season. 
We extend a cordial invitiation to all orchid enthusiasts to 
visit our nursery and judge at first hand the quality and vigor 
of our stock. Here you may see all phases of the orchid’s growth. 
You will see seed pods ripening, young seedlings beginning to 
pick up vigor and older plants growing the substantial bulbs that 
presage future fine flowers. A glance through our stud house 
will convince you that many of these plants are the sires of the 
blue ribbon winners of tomorrow. 
For those who also grow Cattleyas and their allied hy- 
brids, we wish to state that our collection of these is as large 
and as fine as our Cymbidiums. We have a catalog devoted 
entirely to this genera which we will be happy to send you 
on application.
