And does it with an enthusiasm that is almost overwhelming! Young

And on top of all this . . . Dendrobiums love beginners! You al- 
most can’t fail with them! With just the slightest attention they'll 
reward you with myriads of yellow or white or rose or lavender Orchids 
to wear or load into vases and bowls. 
And there’s even more! Dendrobiums grow anywhere—in pots, 
in hanging baskets, in trees. They are almost permanent indoor and 
outdoor decorations.
