CYMPBIDIUM ORCHIDS 
For the amateur as well as the professional, there is no finer 
flower, lasting for months as a cut flower, and none so easy to grow 
23 the Cymbidium, We have grown these Orchids over a period of years 
tinder the following conditions: In Southern California we grow Cym- 
bidiums out of doors under lath or tree shade, however, some cf our 
friends grow them under glass, either one just so long as they have a 
good circulation of air but no direct wind. Cymbidium do well piant- 
ed in raised beds or grown in pots. Plant high so the base of the 
pseudo bulbs are at surface level, mulch with leaf mold to keep the 
compost on the acid side. Cymbidium must have good drainage. We use 
a potting soil of 2 parts leaf mold, 1 part top soil and i part pea 
gravel or decomposed granite. Use plenty of broken pots or coarse 
gravel in the bottom of the pot. 
In compiling this list, we are quoting single bulb or growth 
price. If you desire a plant with 2 or 3 bulbs, or more, you arrive 
at the price of the plant by multiplying the single bulb price by the 
number of bulbs you want on the plant. If it is impossibie for us to 
supply you with your choice, we will advise you by return mail - and 
if you care to make another selection we will appreciate it - we wil 
not make any substitute shipments without your authority, but will re- 
turn your money immediately. If you want a single (1) bulb, the fol- 
lowing prices will prevail. 
Colors herein stated are general. We make no guarantee other 
than that our plants are healthy and vigorous, The following are all 
from our commercial cut flower stock, free bloomers and strong growers.
