FENNELL’S ORCHID CATALOGUE 
FENNELL’S 
ORCHID SEED LIST 
262.—C. Princess Margaret very fine 
dark X BC Princess Patricia very fine 
large. Princess Margaret is a beautiful 
heavy textured round dark flower, while 
Princess Patricia is larger with a large 
lip, heavy texture but not quite so round. 
Both are strong growing and outstand- 
ing as.to the quality of their flowers. 
This should be a very fine Brasso C. 
263. (LC Windermere X C. Trimos) Very 
heavy textured, medium size, extremely 
round dark flower, blooms in late Febru- 
ary or early March X C. Enid fine dark, 
heavy textured, large which is very 
strong growing and blooms several times 
yearly. This cross should make a freer 
flowering dark brilliant flower of ex- 
cellent shape and texture. 
264.—C. St. Petersburg Var. Gigantea 
X. C. St. Petersburg Var. Excelsion.— 
Two of our finest, largest and heaviest 
textured varieties of C. St. Petersburg 
have been used here. These plants are 
both very strong growing and extremely 
free flowering, blooming at almost any 
time during the year. We have had 40 
flowers from one 6-inch pot of St. Peters- 
burg Gigantea in one year. The plants 
regularly produce two to three crops of 
blooms in one year for us. 
265.—C. Bob Betts X C St. Petersburg— 
Very fine variety. C. Bob Betts has a 
very heavy textured and large round 
flower but blooms only once yearly in 
late winter or early spring. One plant 
of this lot received the President’s 
Silver Trophy at the 1952 Miami Orchid 
Show. 
The C. St. Petersburg is much freer 
flowering, blooming 2 to 3 times per 
year and is very strong growing with 
heavy textured, well-shaped pure white 
flowers. This should make an excellent 
white and should be freer flowering than 
the average. ; 
266.—C. St. Petersburg X C White E'm- 
press.—Two strong growing large flow- 
ering whites used here. Both have 
heavy texture and good shape. This 
should be a very fine pure white hy- 
brid. 
267.—C. Schroederae X LC George S. 
Ball.—A previous cross of these two 
parents gave about one-half the plants 
with yellow or orange colored flowers 
while the other half had lavender flow- 
ers with dark purple lips. The seedlings 
were strong growing and the flowers 
were about 3-in. to 314-in. in diameter, 
larger than the George Ball parent, but 
not so large as the Schroederae. They 
bloom in late February, March and April. 
268.—C. Hardyana Alba cream sepals 
and petals, dark brilliant lip X BLC 
Calife medium yellow sepals and petals, 
large dark gold and crimson lip. This 
should produce a large flowered yellow 
of good quality, blooming in fall and 
early winter. 
269.—LC 140 (LC Martinetti XLC Page 
Platt).— Bright orange-yellow sepals and 
petals, very deep blood-red lip X¥ C. Ad- 
miration — light lavendar sepals and 
petals, deep crimson lip. This should 
produce bronze, yellow and lavender 
flowers. The Admiration plant has very 
large beautifully shaped flowers while 
No. 140 has yellow color and a very deep 
red lip. There will undoubtedly be a 
wide variation between the seedlings of 
this cross, but some of them should be 
exceptionally fine. 
270. C. Trimos x LC Altesse-—A very 
fine, large, round, dark Trimos with 
heavy texture, crossed with our fine 
LC Altesse. Should bloom in Feb.-Mar. 
1952 
and be a very high quality flower. 
271. C. Lueddemannia Jungle Prince x 
C. Enid Fennell’s Var.—Both parents 
used here are very large, free flower- 
ing and strong growing. Should pro- 
duce large, dark flowers around the 
calendar, 
272. LC Brittania rubra x C. Luedde- 
mannia suwperba.—This should make a 
dark to very dark LC with fine shape 
and size. It will probably flower sev- 
eral times per year. 
273. C. Schroederae « Aurantiaca.—The 
combination of these two identical par- 
ents produced the fine lot of C. Wol- 
steriana which has been one of our 
most popular items for the past two 
years. Flowers about 2% to 3-in. in 
diameter in clusters, colors varying 
from light peach through many shades 
of yellow and apricot to deep burnt 
orange. Blooms Feb.-Mar. 
Prices of any of the foregoing per 
packet sufficient for ten 500CC flasks, 
$15.00; half packet, $8.00; and one- 
fourth packet, $5.00.
