Name, Parentage and Description 
C. Florence Patterson (C. Rita Sladden X 
C. Clementine Goldfarb) 
This is a reverse cross of No. 426. It is one of our 
strongest growing white crosses. 
C. Old Forester (C. Enid X C. Charybdis) 
The fine growing qualities of C. Enid merged with 
the other Hybrid used here makes this a very desir- 
able Hybrid for late Winter and Spring months. C. 
Old Forester should go a long way in helping to 
bridge this particular season when there is an 
apparent shortage of quality Hybrids. It is an 
exceptionally heavy textured flower of great sub- 
stance and the color is real dark, bright fuchsia- 
orchid having a well shaped lip with fine yellow 
in the throat. 
C. Maureen Orcutt (C. Lady Alexander Alba X 
C. Royal Harold Alba) 
A need for a free growing White for Fall weddings 
prompted this cross. Both parents are paper white 
in the petals and sepals with very brilliant lips. 
C. Maureen Orcutt (C. Royal Harold Alba X 
C. Lady Alexander Alba) 
We refer you to description under No. 487. 
Le. Canhamiana Alba (L. Purpurata X C. Mossiae 
“Reineckiana” Young’s Variety) 
Le. Canhamiana Alba has long been known to be 
one of the old standby White Colored Lips blooming 
during the months of May and June. Because of the 
very strong growing qualities of L. Purpurata 
which is half its parentage, the plant can always 
be depended on to be a very strong grower. It is 
also a fine producer of long lasting, very fragrant 
blooms. Flower stems generally carry three to six 
flowers and the general bud count per plant can be 
depended upon to be exceptionally high. This par- 
ticular orchid also lends itself to light treatment 
very well and in the coming years it should prove 
a much more valuable cut flower than it has been 
in the past because of this reason. Light treatment 
makes it possible to flower this plant for both 
Easter and Mother’s Day and to retard its blooming 
period to have it bloom during the month of June 
when it can be so well used for bridal purposes. We 
have a limited amount of stock to offer. 
C. Vanir (C. Gravesiana Alba X C. Mossiae 
“Waenerii’”’) 
Our quest here is for a good growing White for the 
Easter season. Both parents are strong growers and 
they are proven White breeders. 
C. Mile. Louise Pauwels (C. Edithae No. 1 X 
C. Intertexta “Juliette’”) 
Here again we use our very late Edithae No. 1. 
The Intertexta “Juliette” is a proven white breeder 
which always blooms during the Spring months. 
Season should be March, April and May because of 
the variable blooming habit of Intertexta “Juliette.”
