Name, Parentage and Description 
Le. Brittania Alba (C. Gigas “F.M.B.” X 
Le. Canhamiana Alba) 
This is a repeat cross with two excellent parents. 
The result has always been a fine growing White 
with Colored Lip. Season is March through May. 
C. Thomas C. Kirkwood (C. Princess Royal Alba X 
C. Gigas “F.M.B.”) 
An early Fall White Colored Lip has resulted from 
this union of two old dependable types. 
Le. Edith Dorp (Le. Jane Dane X Le. Schroederae) 
This Hybrid has bloomed for us during the past four 
years. It is a paper White with an exceptionally 
dark Colored Lip. Laeliocattleya growth is excep- 
tional. We have had some very fine form which we 
have used in the different flower shows. Texture of 
all of the flowers has been very good. The flowering 
season is a long one, it extends from September 
into January. 
Ble. Fred Danker (Ble. Cliftard X C. Empress Frederick) 
A medium colored Brassolaeliocattleya has been 
the result here. Blooming time is April and May 
The plant is an exceptional grower. 
C. Ethel Bishop (C. S.E. Endicott X C. Barbara Dane) 
This new Hybrid has done very well where it has 
been shown. It has won several Awards. It is a 
well shaped White, blooming during September, 
October and November. The growth of the plant is 
very good and the plant is of a compact habit, giving 
a good account of itself in very small sizes. 
Le. Bou Philippo (Le. Windermere “A.M.” X C. Mossiae) 
This cross has been so outstanding in this particular 
number and an earlier number, No. 285, that we 
have repeated the cross over and over again. Season 
was one of the main questions in making this cross. 
Mossiae in the make-up has taken care of this. 
Blooming time is March and April, making it a 
valuable Easter Hybrid. The shape is always very 
good, the texture is far better than straight Mossiae 
and the color is always darker than Mossiae. In 
fact, we simply say it is a glorified Mossiae. 
C. Barbara Billingsley (C. Joan Manda X C. Trianae 
‘‘Broomhills Variety”’) 
We have bloomed this cross for the past five years. 
The results have been most satisfactory. Flowers 
are of very good texture, large and very well 
shaped. One of the fine types was awarded an 
“F.C.C.” at the American Orchid Society Meeting 
in February 1947. 
Le. Vandeletta (Le. Ibbie X C. Leda) 
A bid for flower production was the thought behind 
this particular cross. This has been fulfilled with 
the result of an extremely dark and interesting type 
of flower. Substance is exceptionally firm and all
