LAELIA 
the leelias are all od fie species, Leelie anceps is the most pepdias 
because of its free flowering habit and easy growth, Of all orchids it is the most 
fool proof specie for the beginner. Rafts, baskets or pots are all good manners of 
mounting or planting; pots are the safest. Laelia majelis or grandiflora is of 
extreme size for the pseudobulbs which bear the bleom. This latter specie needs 
more sunlight and a drier condition than most other species. With the right treat- 
ment it will respond with large purple flowers. Autumnalias is ea plant from higher 
altitudes and resists mch cold. Its flowers are mildly fragrant. All laelias of 
the Mexican variety have their distinctive form differing from the South American 
varieties in not resembling the cattleyas as much as the latter types.
