Spring.

C. BENSON'S #26 X C. DECEMBER SHOW - A fine cross of large, well 
rounded pure white blooms for late Winter and Spring. 
BLO DAWN ANGELA X LC PRINCESS MARGARET ~ This cross of two, fine, large 
and dark show quality blooms is expected to produce the choicest of 
Winter blooms, having all the finest points in size, shape, texture, 
richness of color. I don't see how this one can fail. Quantity limited. 
C. TRIMOS X BLC MALVERN = Most any hybridizer will tell you, "Yellows 
are trickye It's harder to breed good yellows than anything else". But 
the use of a very delicately colored species or primary hybrid, like 
Trimos, for the pod parent, seems to avoid much of the "trickiness". 
While some of the resultant yellow blooms will undoubtedly be "blushing", 
in others the deep, clear, golden yellow of Malvern will show up stronger 
than ever. They should be Winter and Spring blooming. 
C. TRIUMPH X BC HARTLAND = If you've ever had any of my lists before, 
you know that I think Be Hartland is the best of the "Brassos", as to 
size, shape, texture and productivity. It blooms faithfully twice a 
year, Winter and Summer; three to five large, vividly dark rosé-purple, 
well rounded blooms per stem. The kind of blooms that are ALWAYS in 
demand. In this instance, C. Triumph was chosen as the pod parent for 
it was the darkest hybrid available = in fact, one of the darkest I've 
ever seen. 
C. ENID X LC JOAN MADDISON - Joan Maddison, a Black and Flory hybrid, 
is a cross of Lc Queen Mary and C. Gloriette. Exceedingly large and 
vivid, it usually flowers twice or more yearly, 6s does Enid, the pod 
parent. In this case the darkest Enid available was used. 
C. DUPREANA X LC DONALD ROBINSON = The Le hybrid, registered in 1948, 
is a cross of C. Gloriette and Le Profusion - a producer of top quality 
glowingly dark flowers of grand size and shape. The cross with C. 
Dupreana should produce some fine, dark blooms for Spring season. 
DENDROBIUM PHALAENOPSIS, DIXON STRAIN - This darkest and most vivid 
strain of D. Phalaenopsis, continues to increase in popularity with each 
successive blooming season. They have been bloomed in as little as 
twenty months out of the flasks, and grow bigger and better each season, 
sometimes producing canes over three feet tall, with thirty blooms on 
the spike. Long lasting and excellent for floral arrangements and 
corsage work. [Fall through Early Winter. These pots average 25 seed- 
lings each.
